Welcome to this month's edition of Six Degrees of Separation, which is a monthly meme hosted by Kate from Books Are My Favourite and Best. The idea is to start with a specific book and make a series of links from one book to the next using whatever link you can find and see where you end up after six links. I am also linking this post up with The Sunday Salon, hosted by Deb at Readerbuzz.
This month's starting point is Western Lane by Chetna Maroo, which is a novella that has been nominated for the Booker prize.
For my first link I am going to be a bit obvious and go with the opposite direction to West and choose East of Eden by John Steinbeck! East of Eden was a book that I read thanks to the Oprah Book Club back in the day.
Another book I read through that was One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcia. I recently heard that that Netflix are making a series from this book.
Another book that recently got the Netflix treatment was All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr. I haven't started watching it yet, but we will. After all, reading this book inspired us to stay in St. Malo when we were in France earlier this year.
A place I would love to visit in France after reading about it in a book is Carcasonne. A book that is set there is Labyrinth by Kate Mosse
Another author named Kate is Kate Atkinson and I have chosen to use her book Started Early, Took the Dog for the purposes of this exercise.
Keeping with the dog theme, my final selection is To Say Nothing of the Dog by Connie Willis
The starting point for next month is Kitchen Confidential by Anthony Bourdain.
Where did your chain take you this month?
