@Alice oh that would be so cute to use them for origami :mclove:

@Julez So far so good but i've only just started reading it so I don't have much to judge it on. I'm expecting to like it though, I read Around the World in 80 Days earlier this year and really enjoyed it :mccute: And i'm just reading it in English, unfortunately I don't know enough of another language to be able to comprehend an entire book. :mcgloom: one day, maybe...

Aw that's nice! I haven't read 'Around the World in 80 Days', but must be great! I love the story!

So far I have only read 'Journey to the Center of the Earth' and 'From the Earth to the Moon'. I own another book which I haven't read yet, that is '20,000 Leagues Under the Sea'. I really want to be able to read them in French one day, but I have read them in German only..
As I said, I really liked the first one, but the 2nd one was kind of hard to follow and a little boring, but still nice.

I'd like to read 20,00 Leagues Under the Sea, i've heard about it many times before so it must be pretty good! I'd also like to be able to read in French one day. It's the only other language I somewhat understand, although barely. I haven't continued to learn much French since I was at school :mcheh:

oh I was referring more to recycling books with wrong stuff in there. those you wouldn't really recommend anyone and for that matter offer anyone

though to each their kinks... I only really have a problem if it's shelved as, let's say, YA if it should be adult. or dark erotica

Ah now I get ya.

I can tell you more about that book, Ghost, if I will ever read it. I don't think it'll be soon :qhehe:
You had French at school? That's great, me, too! For how long?

I think it was only 2 years, maybe 3. I enjoyed it but wanted to learn other subjects as well so I had to give something up, which ended up being my French classes.

Maths and Science; I thought I needed those subjects to get into university but I didn't end up going :mcsweat:

I started using duolingo a while ago to try and improve my French but I haven't practised in aages. :mcshock: How are you learning French?

Awww what did you do after school then?

I am using duolingo as well xD
It's more like a way of reminding me of a few simple words and the sentence structure. I am going to have a French class this term at university :) I learned it at school for 6 years.
