I’m pleased to share Lynda Filler’s latest memoir here today along with my review! I read and loved “LOVE: The Beat Goes On.” I message I took away from both books was a reminder to live fully in our moments.
BLURB:
There’s no turning back.
I’ve sold everything.
I bought one-way tickets around the world with no return destination.
My friends think I’m crazy.
What if I don’t find what I’m looking for?
I’m not chasing love. Not exactly.
What if he’s not the one?
So grab a cappuccino or herbal tea if you prefer and join me at Café Confidential. I will share my adventures and secrets as I travel to France, India, Israel, Malaysia, and Turkey. Perhaps I can convince you that it’s never too late to follow your dreams.
CAFE CONFIDENTIAL:
“I finished (reading) this memoir 3 days ago…I can sincerely say it has not left my mind since completing it. I will start by saying that without any doubt this is not just my favorite book of 2020 but is absolutely one of my top 5 of all time.” KirscherSmiles
MY REVIEW:
CAFE CONFIDENTIAL: An unfiltered and intimate memoir
by Lynda Filler
I read Ms. Filler’s first memoir, “LOVE: The Beat Goes On.” It was a book that has stayed with me, so I was excited to continue her life’s story. “Café Confidential” does a bit of recapping her past, but then it dives into selling her belongings and traveling. I loved seeing the world through the author’s eyes in her writing and photography. It isn’t a straight line of places visited, but her thoughts, history, and philosophies are weaved into the book. There is a pure joy embracing each moment as well as dealing with life’s sorrows. I know I have wondered, at times, what it would be like to sell everything I own and explore. I come away from reading this inspired by Ms. Filler. We should all take that leap of faith and follow our path in life.

This memoir from Lynda is coming up on my TBR list VERY soon! Thanks for sharing your thoughts on it, Denise!
I’m sure you will enjoy it, Jan. Happy reading.
Thank you, Denise. I read her first memoir and loved it. I look forward to this read as well. ☺
It was a nice addition to the first book, and I can see a follow uo after this:)
Thanks so much! It was a really fun experience and a great story to share! Only an author can have a “plot twist” life! I love your review!
I enjoyed sharing it with you, Lynda:) Nothing like a good plot twist! Xo
Thank you for sharing this book with us Denise. I love memoirs and this one sounds fun. Wishing Lynda great success with her new release.
Thanks, Balroop. Memoirs show us a different reality and can open up our hearts.
This is a very interesting review, Denise. I can’t imagine selling everything I own and just travelling. Thanks for sharing.
I think about at times, but I am more of a take off in an RV kind of person over a suitcase. Giving up my books would be the hardest part.
