Re:England, England
Jane: I loved England, England. It was the second book I ever read by Julian Barnes and I thought it was fantastic. What other books by Barnes have you read and enjoyed?

Haruki Murakami
Hello Everyone
My most recent book was 'Chronicles of a wind-up bird' by (Japanese) author Haruki Murakami.
I hadn't heard of him until a friend of mine suggested another book of his 'Norwegian wood'. I haven't read that but read the one above as i chanced upon it at a friend's place. Am i glad or what?!
The book is absolute brilliance! Infact, i would even recommend the book to beginners in English as the author writes in simple English except for a few words of course.
However, please don't let the size of the it overwhelm you! Once you begin, you will be consumed by the madness of it!
If you've already read it or when you do read it(!) we could have an exchange on our views on it:o)

Re:me
I really liked the four books, althought I just read one in English. Do you know more books like these? I love to read them!

Just another reader...
Love to read books. I read many types of book. I am not biased against any one writer or writing era. I will try to read just about anything.

Re:Contact me =)
Hey!
When I saw your mail, I wanted to answer right then, though we have the same native language, because it reminded me so much of myself...in a more talented way^^. I mean, I write English fluently, but my oral is less good (I try to improve), I read books in English, and I'm going to start reading German too. I'm also into books, and I'm going to start Japanese as soon as I find a good manual. In fact, you're just like me, but better. Like I'll be when I have improved everything! So I terribly wanted to get in touch with you. I wrote in English because it seemed so awkward to write in French to a French person on a language website!
So I'd like to know more about you... To see if you really are a perfect me^^. Lol. Or if I am an imperfect you. Yeah, that's it. We can go on in English if you want. Or French. Or German... anyway, try and see if I can keep on^^

Re:me
Hey! I love Twilight books too! Edward and Bella are wonderful but I love also James and Victoria... I don't know the blue bloods books. Besides, I love almost all kinds of books... What about you? I am French and I speak English quite well already (although I'd like to improve my oral), so I'm merely searching for a friendly exchange with strangers. I learn German too, and there I'd need to improve much more^^

Je serais ravie de discuter avec toi.
Je suis Camerounaise et je parle le français et l'anglais. Je voudrais apprendre l'espagnol ou l'italien et me perfectionner en anglais. En quelle langue voudrais tu qu'on échange? Anglais ou français?
Au plaisir de te lire.
