“Happy be the reader plunged into her book who forgot the world and whom world forgot.”
Gabrielle Dubois

“Love from novels isn't true love: it ends where it should begin. True love, deep love, grows up with time, throughout days of dullness and days of storms. It leaves in one's heart a rainbow of tenderness and forgiveness which illuminates forever the beloved one.”
Gabrielle Dubois

“Why do we do so few when we can do so much?”
Gabrielle Dubois

“My own heart is in my characters. My novels are my memories; they are the best part of me.”

Hi, Mackey,
I'm sorry, I just read your message now. I still don't totally understand how Goodreads works!
But fortunately, you already know that I liked your review about Mistress Mine.
What maybe you don't know is that the second and last part of the Louise Saint-Quentin series, Where are you roaming? is now available!
Have a nice day,
Gabrielle

Mackey I've tried to figure out how to privately message you and simply cannot. I did want you to know that the review is live - finally!!


Gabrielle Dubois Merry Christmas to all of you Goodreads friends and readers!
Im interested in Goodreads for few months only, but what months! With the books clubs Aussie Readers, Historical Fictionistas, Victorians and Catching up on Classics, and with independent readers, I participated in very interesting readings and discussions. For this, I thank you very much and also for accepting to read my comments in my personal and whimsical English! :)
I took so much pleasure here, that I intend to have a marvellous 2018 year with you all on Goodreads, spending in readings, comments and sharings.
Have a beautiful Christmas,
Gabrielle Dubois.

Yes, great pianist indeed!
I subscribed for years to the Chamber Orchestra of Toulouse, France, where I live. Every month, I don't miss the concert. There are usually about ten violins, bass, etc ... but sometimes there are guests, pianists, harpsichordists, viola da gamba. It is in an old church, we always spend a wonderful evening!
We really disconnect from our lives, it feels good.

Are you a professional musician?


Sarah (Presto agitato) Sorry about the link! I sent it because a lot of people know the 1st movement, but the 3rd is less frequently heard, but since you know it, it doesn’t matter. (The pianist was Barenboim, one of my favorites for Beethoven).
