Debre's Love My Tender was my favorite book that I read in 2024. Not being French I felt Name was a disappointment. Too much soapbox and not enough story arc. Playboy was solid. What I liked about all three is her voice.
Oh that’s so good to know! I didn’t even realize it was part of a trilogy, so I have yet to read the first two. I’m heading to France in August, so I’ll pick up the other two then. I have a feeling Name was supposed to be a summary of the lessons/themes of the first two books. I didn’t mind it as a read, but you’re not wrong that not much happened. I’ll update once I read the other two!!
A fun list! :) I really enjoyed One Dark Window, too, and the sequel. I love that you have a French book goal. I sometimes listen to audiobooks in German, but I haven't gotten to one in a while. I'll have to add that to my list. Happy June reading!
