#book recs#(links go to the english goodreads page unless there's no english translation)#social creature was just okay really but i love books about toxic female friendships and i've read so many disappointing ones#it makes this one stand out in comparison#also the delphine de vigan book is topical re: my last post. about youtuber children#it's been translated in quite a few languages but not english yet#my top 3 of the year is all nonfiction. the jodi kantor book + svetlana alexievich + sylvain tesson#and la princesse de clèves but it's mostly because i love 17th century french so much!
