Are you a big Conan fan?

[Mindaugas]

Not a very big, but I want to learn English and found those short stories. I started to read and I liked it.
I will try to read all Conan stories by Robert E. Howard, because its easy to find audio on Youtube.

Actually I am fan of fantasy and Sci-Fi, I read a lot of books in my native language. But now I am all in English. :)

I am reading The Journey of Being Human by Osho. This one I read in Czech. And what about you Solanderdog?

In French, I've just started "Il Était une fois à Québec," which is a historical novel by Michel Langlois. I honestly don't know much about it - I've only just started - but the French looks fairly easy and I'm really interested in Canadian history.

I'm also reading "Le Monde en partage: Itinéraires d'Albert Camus," which really isn't all that challenging. It's basically a coffee table book full of photos and citations, but it is beautiful.

In English, I'm working on "Infinite Jest" but I'm not sure I'm going to finish it. It's massive and I'm having trouble getting into it.

Well I read also in Spanish a book by Daniel Silva The Moscow Rules.

Now I am reading A Time to Kill
It looks easier than Conan and I am on fourth chapter now. I like it, because easy to read and looks like really good book.

It sounds like an exciting story!

I'm still working on "Il Était une fois à Québec" which, as it turns out, is just right for my level of French. Most of the time, I can read it without having to think in English at all.

I will be happy to know your opinion about « Il Était une fois à Québec »
I never read any quebeker literature and that could be a good occasion to do it.

"Most of the time, I ..."

I've only read 130 pages of the first volume, but I like it so far. It's written quite simply and clearly and I'm enjoying the little bits and pieces of history it sneaks into the story and setting. Someone more familiar with area would probably get more out of it than me, but I'm still enjoying seeing places I've been, like Lévis and Île d'Orléans , play a part in the story.

Sure, please let me know what you think. I've read another 70 pages or so and one thing I should add is that there isn't a whole lot of action or conflict in this book. It's a very gentle story.
