Mort Et Un Peu D'Amour(la) | Alexandra Marinina

Leftovers lunch. I like to do this, especially when on summer break. Take what's in the fridge and make a plate that is good and pretty too. Got three veggies in there along side a Russian mystery. #summerreading #readinginfrench

July flew by at a lighting pace. August is summer break time for me. Summer reading will be almost over but I have three weeks to devote to it. Still reading in French. One more done. It was fabulous. Review to follow. Next a Russian mystery. #readinginFrench #summerreading

Weekend is nearly here. 👊🏻
Currently reading a really good one and bookhaul. #readinginfrench #summerreading

writerlibrarian My current book has been translated in English. If you are interested in Canadian lit, modern art history. It's really good. (edited) 7y

So so good. Even as a reread. All the cast of characters are endaring even the bad guys. Not all is black and white and in the end love wins all. I just love the Malaussene tribe. #readinginfrench

Enjoying the end of the weekend with vanilla ice cream with crumbled ginger cookies and honey along side Pennac. Which I am savouring. It's a reread but such a good one. #summerreading #readinginfrench

La liste de mes envies | Gregoire Delacourt
post image

Still reading in French. I'm reading past bestsellers that were very popular with the patrons at my library. I bought at least 10 copies of Delacourt's novel back in 2013. I read in the original version if possible of a book. That's my preference. Translated english books in French are usually pretty awful. Delacourt's book didn't live up the hype. I found it boring. Short and boring. Onward to the next one.#readinginfrench

Happy Saturday. Good lunch. Healthy salad full of vitamins and iron. Good books. I'm sticking to only reading in French this July. Finished my Maigret and started rereading my Pennac. #summerreading #readinginfrench

Currently reading. Already really impressed by the narrative structure and the poetry of the writing.. it's beautiful, moving, simple.

Reading in French. It's about the amazing life of Nadia Comaneci, a Romanian gymnast who won several golden medals at the Olympic Games in 1972 and 1976. It also gives an amazing insight about what life was like for people living under Ceausescu's regime. The lack of food, the impossibility to trust anyone as everyone is spying on each other... almost done with it and so far a very good book. #readinginFrench #literature #communism #sport #women
