I love reading back through passages of Edwige's memoir because my French is so much better than it was when I first read it and it's like rediscovering everything that I missed or needed more help with a translator

#it was the first book i forced myself to read in french #and it was like cold turkey #this bitch (me) did not have any french other than greetings and numbers before reading the book #and i acc was semi decent with reading the language by the time i finished reading the book #(ie i could get the gist of things much better without checking for every single word yaddah yaddah)#anyway i reread a passage last night and tbh!!! this woman was too nice for her own good!#i mean I'd probs have done the same as her but like...she always tried to be a good friend oml #even when they were shitty #like I'm reading it and am thinking 'girl ur a sweetheart but you gotta learn to put your foot down n say no'#she did that too ofc but it was usually for more serious things #agh she's just such a softie i cannot get over it 🥺💖🥰😭😭😭#roacc
