Suggestion of the end of the year

It was a pleasure to share a book on November 20th at the Le Presse Papier bookstore’s book club. For this event, I chose to present “Women Also Made History” by Titiou Lecoq.

This book recounts the epic story of women chronologically throughout history, highlighting the times they were forgotten and the roles they were not always given.

During this presentation, the readers present suggested two other books: one was *L’inconnue du portrait* by Camille Perretti, and the other was *Le cantique du chaos* by Mathieu Belezi, a dystopian novel. The bookseller made slightly different choices, which I also invite you to discover.

With that, I wish you all happy holidays.

Reading club

affiche de l'évènement

October 29, I have been to the reading club of the public library in the town where I live. This one proposed news about books and I was curious about it.

The number of participants was huge and a lot of women were in the audience.

The session was moderated by four civil servants working for the library. Each one presented their readings and commented.

The list was long with different kind of books biographies, thrillers, thrillers, science fiction etc.

This exchange with the public fascinated me. Each agent presented a book in a unique way and I realised how much a reading was subjective.

For my part, I have enjoyed meeting people and discovering other authors in that way.
