Book Review of Au Revoir Tristesse Lessons in Happiness from French Literature by Viv Groskop

Hello everyone

It's that time again for a new book review and what a delight this one was for me. I had been having a hard time trying to get into books recently but when I found this one on my bookshelf, I immersed in it completely. I loved it because I resonated a lot with the author who had a love for all things French.

In this book, she choose 12 books in French literature and shares to us, the lessons in happiness from within them. It's a book that not only talks about these classics but also the stories of their authors and peppered with stories of her growing up obsessed in being someone other than herself - of wanting to be French (yep, I know THAT feeling!).

My lesson from this book is that there are times when a book is meant to be read at a certain time in my life. I'm glad this one came at this time.
