START Reading in French 📚 My Method & Feminist Book Recs 🥖🍷 B1/B2 Level ❤️

Books in French are not something you should fear if you are at a B1 or B2 level! Reading in a foreign language can be tricky, but in this chatty video I go through my best tips and tricks for getting started while also going through some french book recommendations! :-)

P.s: I wasn't sure if I should post this video because I filmed it a long time ago! This was a completely unscripted video and only while I was editing I realised that I mispronounced some words and made some mistakes. I’m still learning! I swear my French has gotten better, and my video quality too ffkdfhksd

🌟Btw here you can find a reasonably priced French tutor!
