I read 'Le diable au corps'

My first book is Jane Eyre.

三生三世枕上书; this was the first Chinese novel I read, but I've always read Chinese poetry, so I’m not sure if that counts.

Bel Ami by Guy de Maupassant

My first book was Agatha Christie 4.50 from Paddington station.It is a miss marpel storie

I read "the giver" which talks about a utopic society that lost memories of war, pain and suffering, as well as feelings. It's really good.
I also read "Eleanor Oliphant is perfectly fine", but it was kinda depressing.

As a Chinese, the first novel I reading in English was The Kite runner, a really moving novel. I finished it during senior 2 in high school. I love this story.
The first novel I Red in English was Robinson Crusoe

I read my first english book at school , it was a book about Aborigines and girls how leave a way from there home in a school from withe persons ,and how they run a way but i have forgotten

My first book in English was Alice in Wonderland 🙂

The Old Man and the Sea. An enchanting classic

The first novel I've read in English is Harry Potter and the first in Spanish is Muerte en Valencia.

Something from Susanne Kubelka in German, but don. T remember exactly🙂

Le petit prince est un bon conte
I did that in Chinese

In English it was these broken stars I think, but actually it wasn´t that good haha. In French lesson we have read le petit prince

My First book in English was Big girl small

I read "switch bitch" in English of Roald Dahl

It was "Ultime lettere di Jacopo Ortis" from Ugo Foscolo compared to Goethes "Die Leiden des jungen Werthers". Foscolo has written the same story as Goethe, he has only changes the names of the protagonist and the countries. Is very funny!

Marja, I think your book is The Rabbit Proof Fence.
I don't remember if my first book in English was Harry Potter, The Hobbit or The Lord Of The Rings.
