The Almond Blossom Appreciation Society" by Chris Stewart is a hilarious and heartwarming chronicle of life on his Andalusian farm, El Valero. It's the third book in his "Lemons Trilogy," following "Driving Over Lemons" and "A Parrot in the Pepper Tree.

The book finds Chris and his family adjusting to their unique rural existence. Chris, a former Genesis drummer turned farmer, grapples with the challenges of Spanish bureaucracy, teenage daughter woes, and even a rescue by the Guardia Civil after a snowy mishap.

Laughter abounds as Chris bluffs his way through art history for wealthy visitors, navigates the intricacies of olive oil production, and even joins the titular society dedicated to celebrating the region's stunning almond blossoms.

Stewart's optimistic spirit and wry observations shine through. He portrays the beauty of the Spanish countryside alongside the everyday struggles and misadventures of expat life. We cringe with him at a stint working at an immigrant center, and we're sure to never look at olive oil the same way again.

This delightful memoir is perfect for anyone who enjoys humor, travelogues, and a glimpse into a life less ordinary.
