Sometimes it‘s hard for me to choose between my mother tongue (German) and Englisch. Especially if there is a translated book. Please tell me I am not the only one❣️😉 #problemsofareader #bookperson #differentlanguagereader #booksindifferentlanguages #translatedbooks #germanbooks #englishbooks #languageenthusiast

Dilara My mother tongue is French but I used to live in the UK. I stopped reading English books translated into French years ago: they all feel wrong! That doesn't stop me from reading translations from other languages...
When I can, I like to read the French translations of books originally written in a Romance language, and the English translations of books originally written in a Germanic language. I practice, I read the version I can find 😊

Bookperson96 👍🏻🙂 @Dilara Might try to do that as well. Had French in school and liked it. Currently do not have much to do with it though, which is sad. 2mo

I do this thing where if I‘m only reading one book and I finish it, then I don‘t know which book to choose next and want to read ALL the books. So I may have started 5 books recently, which I don‘t like because it takes so long to finish them all! 😳😂 #problemsofareader

When too many of your library books come in at once! #problemsofareader #firstworldproblem #thestruggleisreal

EvieBee Have you been watching Mercy's bookshelf tour? Because I have these same title on my list to pick up from the library...especially How To Breathe Underwater. 9y
rmaclean4 @EvieBee84 I do watch Mercy's videos. Love her recommendations and that she supports small publishers. Have you ever gotten a Moth Box? 9y
EvieBee @rmaclean4 I had no idea she was doing those! I feel so out of the loop. Have you received one? I trust her judgement. 9y
rmaclean4 @EvieBee84 i have not ordered one...but have been very tempted. 9y
