Ha, yeah, as soon as I calmed down and read the yuletide_admin post I promptly found it and all the other RPF :) Interesting that this doesn't seem to have happened last year.
Lol, I may be forsworn on my promise to finish Oster by the time you finish the memoirs! Though mostly because the new Megan Whalen Turner is out, so I'm rereading all the previous ones, and they're really good but I keep just reading those instead of my Oster homework :P
Hmm, selenak, how is the Voltaire bio in terms of readability? Because that's what I really want to read that's in French :P (I'd rather read that than Wilhelmine's memoirs, honestly, which I wasn't even able to finish in English -- although of course this was sans fistulas :P )
I... have to say that I'm not at all interested in reading Catt :P
I was under the vague impression that my French reading was a bit better than yours, but that could very well be incorrect :) I have been doing a bit of Petit Prince to practice (it turns out I have the English translation all but memorized, so it's basically like proceeding with an interleaved translation) but it has fallen by the wayside lately due to all this other stuff :)
