It appears that The Tower, The Zoo, and The Tortoise by Julia Stuart is shaping up to be the next Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Society. According to The Washington Post it is a “zany and touching novel” about Beefeater Balthazar Jones and his wife Hebe and their 181-year-old tortoise pet tortoise. It is also written up in USA Today with a glowing mention. I’m also loving the cover! Julia Stuart is the author of The Matchmaker of Perigord.
