Book : Relish by Lucy Knisley

July 18, 2014

I visited the new huge MPH at NU Central and found Relish by Lucy Knisley. I just need to have it.
Two years ago, I posted about French Milk, a travelogue by Lucy on her visit to France and I also bought 60 pages of her e-travelogue to Tanzania last year - mostly about the place and food :

It's basically about food. The author/artist loves food and she shares her love in a beautiful and colourful comic-like + doodles. It is a mixture of experiences, menus, how-to, tips, and thoughts. Her illustrations are much better and cleaner compared to her last book. I love how she love to list things down, because I love to list things in visual :D 


Details :-
Artist : Lucy Knisley, an American comic artist
About : Life experience & food
Pages : 173
Printed : First Second Books on a thick paper *better than most comics I own! 
Links : WebsiteTumblr

You can buy it from bookdepository for around RM 53 with free delivery and it might take 3+ weeks to arrive or you can also find it at MPH NuCentral for RM 59 - like I did ! *can try to find it at Kinokuniya, KLCC too.

Book : French Milk

Hello !

I woke up early today because I was awaken by countless mosquito bites. I thought I'd be feeling groggy, but luckily I felt alive! I literally sang-aloud Karyn White's Superwoman and Keranamu Cinta by V.E & Quadrose, my all time random favorites. 

Before I went to to the bus stop, I went to check the letter box. Silently hoping for Raya cards, but alas! Luckily, I saw a medium sized heavy envelope when I peeked in. Yeay, my package has arrived! The travelogue I ordered from bookdepository! It merely took 15 days, with free shipping and all, I'm satisfied! Read here for my previous order review.

My third order from bookdepository :
French Milk by Lucy Knisley. I've been searching for this travelogue at major bookstores, but I never found it so I decided to order from bookdepository. Books posted in my letterbox on random days, I feel like Santa leaving presents on Christmas for me!

I am enjoying it by far. *I read it on my way to work this morning, now on page 124. It is a travelogue of her experience while staying in Paris for 6 weeks with her mom. It reminds me of my original idea, to explore Paris with my mom and write/draw a travelogue while on that 1 month stay, but alas! Airasia cancelled our flight that was supposedly due last July.

Anyhow, those random chit-chats, little trinkets of interesting things and foods, the culture and environment, the appartement, random french words that I recognized, makes me all excited. I need to do this project someday, someday soon!

Here are sneak-peeks of the book :
