MysteryRose Posted November 26, 2011 Posted November 26, 2011 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! :-) Quote

Chiara Posted November 26, 2011 Posted November 26, 2011 (edited) Welcome Rose! I hope you'll have a nice time here. Do you only read Dutch books or do you read English books as well? Edited November 26, 2011 by Chiara Quote
MysteryRose Posted November 26, 2011 Author Posted November 26, 2011 Thank you all! Welcome Rose! I hope you'll have a nice time here. Do you only read Dutch books or do you read English books as well? 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. Quote

MysteryRose Posted November 27, 2011 Author Posted November 27, 2011 Welcome Rose! I hope you'll have a nice time here. Do you only read Dutch books or do you read English books as well? Hi, I just saw you're Dutch too! Quote
Chiara Posted November 27, 2011 Posted November 27, 2011 (edited) Hi! Yes I'm Dutch too I also searched this forum because no one near me reads the same books as me (my friends don't even read other books). I started reading English books when I was 7, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix was released, but only in English. The Dutch version would be released 2 months after the English version, so I couldn't wait and bought the English version. So I started reading in English and I never stopped. I now prefer reading English books. What do you like most, reading Dutch, French or English books? Edited November 27, 2011 by Chiara Quote
MysteryRose Posted November 28, 2011 Author Posted November 28, 2011 Well, it depends on the subject really. I like to read from English Authors in English and from French authors in French, etc. But if I have to make a choice: these days I prefer reading in English. Quote
