Which book are you reading this week?

It's just very boring, probably because I already know the story because of the movies. But otherwise it's a great book!

I see, maybe there are more descriptions in the book ? I've seen the movies as well and i liked them, so maybe i'll find it boring as well ^^

I've also seen the films (they are awesome !) then I read the book and I liked it ! :)  I'm currenlty re-reading it in order to read the Lord of the Ring atfer.

Are you reading them in english ?
That's my plan for this year, reading the hobbit and LOTR :)

@greatcoffeetragedy = I saw you've finished Les Fiancés de L'Hiver, what did you think :o??

I loved it! Now I just want to read books 2 and 3 (and now I understand why people talk so much about this trilogy)



I'm currently reading Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen

I'm happy you liked it too ! It's indeed a great series :-) Do you read Pride and Prejudice in english ? I loved it, but I read it in french

No, I read it in French. Maybe if I read it again I'll do it in english. So far, some words are complicated, but the books is old so it's normal

Yes, I understand, old classics are surely not the easiest to read in english ! :) Well, I wish you a good read, hope you'll like it !

Ah, that's a great perspective ! And no, in french :) I dont' have a lot of experiences with reading in english, but I'd love to have a lot more ! And I intend to. But I think that Lord of the ring would still be a little bit complicated for me. How about you ? Will it be english or french ? :D

Yes maybe if you don't read in english that often, LOTR might not be the best one to begin with :lol: But your english is very good :)
It definitely will be in english for me, i've found the one-book edition of the saga almost two years ago in a market in London :) (and therefore it was quite cheap) I can't wait to read it, even if i'm a little afraid of reading style, especially in english. I do read quite often in this language, but with Tolkien, that's very different :lol:
I have The Hobbit in english as well.

Ah thank you ! I'm happy to hear that ! 
That's great ! It's the kind of thing that really makes you happy when you find it =) I  wish you a good read then ! :D And, indeed, maybe some courage haha ! ;)

Concerning the Hobbit, I'm reading it in English and I'd recommend you do, because it would be a shame to miss Tolkien's amazing writing !
I'm sure wouldn't be a problem for other people to read the book after having watched the movies, but it's something I don't like to do, like re-reading books, I simply lack the patience x)!

Oh and I'm reading A Gathering of Shadows (book 2 from the Sade of Magic saga) and I love it :heart:!
