Book tastes
I think I write this every year but- I'll read just about anything. I love history, poetry, historical fiction, art, mysteries of all kinds, fantasy, sci fi, etc. I'm learning French, so something about learning French. I look forward to you finding me books that I wouldn't have found myself.
Don't get this!
Religious books. Romance in the style of Harlequin or Danielle Steele. Self help. Political, especially current events.
Secret Santa

Historical fiction graphic novel: Queenie: marraine de Harlem
Other French graphic novel favourites: Marjane Satrapi, Parenthese (Durand)
I like Ionesco, but obviously there are a lot of other French playwrights to read.
Other French stuff you might like:
I've been reading Yourcenar's Comme l'eau qui coule (historical fiction, beautiful writing style so maybe worth putting off until you're reading more fluently)
Quebecois science fiction: Elisabeth Vonarburg (nov. 29, 2023, 3:51pm)
