Worlds Shortest Joke: 2 women were sitting quietly

Hi, I just saw you're Dutch too!

Hi, I'm from the Netherlands! And I've always lived there. Oh no, that's not even true. I've lived a year in France, 11 years ago already...

I've read a lot of biographies, mostly of French Kings and Queens and other important figures from French history. The biographies I loved most, were about Marie-Antoinette.

That is not much to go on. Don't you remember any names? A period?

Thank you. I'll check them out. I must say that at the moment I don't really read historical fiction, but I usually enjoy them. So if I like the synopsis, I will definitely add them to my wish list. Thanks again!

Thank you all! Actually, I started reading English books about a year ago. Before that, I read only French books... but from English authors (translated) . I wasn't quite sure if I would be able to read in English. I tried... and never stopped since! I enjoy it and I learn so much from it! That's why I wanted to find an English forum also, because nobody near me is reading the same books as I do.

I've checked. The first one is called "The Tea Rose", the second one is "The Winter Rose" and the last one is "The Wild Rose" but is not yet been released. Edit: the paperback of the latter has not yet been released, but the hardcover (but American version) was released last August!

Yes, me too! I enjoyed all the books by Isabel Wolff actually. I think I've read them all, or almost

There are 3 volumes, right? I've read the first 2 ones, but in French, so I don't know which one is which in English. I've loved them and I believe the third one's just been released. So I definitely will read the third one! Thanks for reminding me!

At the moment my favourite chick-lit authors are: Gemma Burgess and Jane Costello.

Hi! I love London, and I love reading books set in London. So if you know novels (Chick Lit, Contempory, Romance) set in London, please let me know! Thanks!

I've received this book a few days ago, but I was still reading another one, so.... But tonight I can finally start with this one: "One Minute to Midnight" by Amy Silver. The cover is gorgeous, I love the setting, so I can't wait to read it! :-)

Hi everyone, I'm MysteryRose or Rose and I'm new on this forum. I'm Dutch, so please forgive the mistakes I'll make! I found this forum after some search on the internet, and now here I am. I love books and these days I'm mostly into Chick Lit, but I like history and contempory as well. Cheers! :-)
