November was another small reading month. I read some great books including Asterix the Gaul. The last time I’ve read anything related to the French comic was high school.
Asterix is an incredibly popular character in European comic history. France has even dedicated a theme park to Asterix’s world.
Here’s my November 2017 book haul:

A very interesting haul 🙂 I would love to get my hands on some writing books. Right now, though, it’s all fiction lol. I am a new follower, though I see you are migrating to a new blog. Good luck with that!

I have a weakness for comic strips. My favorite would be Calvin and Hobbes and Asterix will be a close second.
