Well it was interesting in the beginning but I got bored at the half of the book. I could not connect any of the caracters I cannot feel sorry for them. Plus I hate drugs.

Dangerous Liaisons | Choderlos De Laclos

If you‘re into sexual power games and revealing the seedy under-belly of the upper crust, you should probably read Dangerous Liaisons – maybe just check out a few Wikipedia pages on pre-Revolution French nobility, if you‘re not already familiar ahead of time.

Well I know what I want to read for #FoodandLit #Netherlands: the French translation of the tagged book. There was an article about the 2 female authors here: https://www.liberation.fr/culture/livres/elisabeth-wolff-et-agatha-deken-quatre-...
But it looks like the book's OCR isn't ready so I'd have to read the PDF of the 1787 print, and I'm not sure I'm ready for this😅

I enjoyed this book very much, the MC‘s humor and wit (and unapologetic snarkiness) had me laughing out loud 🤣 I am starting the second book (“The Shakespeare Requirement”) right away 👍

Since the sequel is so short, I ended up reading it in a couple of hours. Soft pick. I felt it was more messy than romantic, and I was getting impatient while characters trudged through the murky waters of their feelings. Wrapped up too conveniently. While it was fine, it would have been fine to stop at first book too. Or make it one book. I didn‘t hate it, but I doubt I will be rereading it.

Epistolary novel. A pretty easy read. It is a story of how an accidental email turned into a pretty intense emotional affair. Was it a romance? Was it a warning that the line between flirtation and “too far” is invisible? Was it an invitation to look outside of one‘s bubble? To reassess a longterm relationship? I can‘t tell yet. The ending was logical. Apparently there is a sequel, I don‘t know if I care enough to read it.

This email made me laugh. In the endlessly quotable words of Neil Gaiman, “Truth is, there aren‘t any grown-ups. Not one, in the whole wide world.”
