Currently reading La Reine Margot (English abridged translation) and Le Comte De Monte Cristo (English and French unabridged in the same book) by Alexandre Dumas. Spent 9 days in France with my girlfriends mum and her partner and realised my French needs massively improving.

Monte Cristo I've read loads of times, it's my favourite book.

Agree with you about The Count of Monte Cristo...excellent book! Haven't read it in French though....but have read Orwell's 1984....but that was a translation (obviously) so wasn't too difficult to read. Started reading Balzac's Le Père Goriot in French........now that's a different matter!!

It's taking me forever to be honest, but it feels like it's helping my French. Best book I've ever read though, looking forward to seeing if it's better in French.
