Hello I’m Debby in central Florida. I listened to Mona’s eyes in Audible which I thought was extremely well done (in English). It was long but glorious. I bought hardcover for my daughter.
Hello, my name is Vicki, based in the US (Central Florida), and I'm interested in joining this BookClub. I come with questions. :-) Is there a requirement to speak French? I noticed the options to read along in English or French. Also, do you know if there is a particular Substack subscription plan required to join?
Interesting! My French book club thru Alliance Française de Grosse Pointe is discussing this very lovely novel tomorrow. Would love to be a part of the discussion in January!
I have already started it. I’m in New York City and absolutely loving it. It screamed at me when I was in a Barnes & Noble’s on Broadway and 79th St. I had no idea it was out. What a beautiful and wonderful surprise.👀🔵🔵
