So does packing books count? I have packed so many boxes of books AND have given lots to the library. I want to make a contribution to this wonderful thread so I'm going to mention a book I love and think others would enjoy. I packed it in a "keep" box today. The book is entitled The Italian Affair and was written by Laura Fraser. It is a memoir. Laura Fraser's husband leaves her for his high school sweetheart. Laura decides to go to Italy for a respite. In Italy she meets a Parisian professor who is witty and enthusiastic. and he is married. What might have been a fleeting affair goes on for years. They meet in many places to travel, explore, eat lavishly and to drink good wine. This is a well written book about a mature love affair. When a friend of mine visited one time, she started reading this book, grabbed a beach chair and took it down to the beach....she didn't return until she finished the book.
