Re:French Literature!
Hi Fiona! I'm French wanting to improve my English... What kind of books do you want to read? Funny ones? Classical ones? I advise you to read "Poil de Carotte" by Jules Renard. It is a short book, a very interesting story... which seems quite simple to read... but it is hard to judge the difficulty from my point of view... I can't name the title in English, nor make a traduction... It is a peculiar French expression that defines the hair colour of a boy who faces difficulties with his parents, especially his mother who punishes him for nothing... It is really pleasant to read... And it is a well-known story in France. Enjoy it!

Re:French Literature!
I teach French litterature here a few books I would recommend:
Le chien jaune (this is a mystery novel and relatively short)
L'annonce faite à Marie-this is a French play, it's very good
Bonheur d'occasion-this book was written by French-Canadian author Gabrielle Roy, it is longer, but a very good read
I hope this helps!
