Multilingual book club 01

Hello, everybody. This is my first time writing a post. I am Russian and I study English for a long time. I need to practice speaking and writing in English. And I like to read books very much. And I think it is a great idea for Robin to organize this community to read the same book together.

But unfortunately I read slowly and also because I do not have so much time. I have only read one book in English. And I decided for myself that I would read "The Shadow of the Wind" by Carlos Ruiz Zafón in Russian, but will discuss it in English. It is just to keep up with everyone.

I hope that I will have a good discussion about this book, and I will already read the next book in English.

Welcome to the club! I hope you're enjoying the book as much as I am.

I think your approach sounds good (reading in your mother language and discussing it in your target language). My Spanish is not ready for reading the book in Spanish and I did not think of your approach. Good luck with your English.

I did not think of this approach either! I also read very slowly so you are not alone. I am reading in Italian and my native language is English. Good luck!
