Good ebook for learning French?
Hi

I'm using the duolingo app to learn French. I think I could use a good book to complement it. Obviously there are lots of French textbooks but I'd like one in epub/mobi format (ie NOT PDF) that I can read it on my kindle.

I'd appreciate recommendations. Thanks

Would love to help but the only french book I know is "The French Chef" by Julia Child.
I don't think that would help unless you were going to only eat in France.

Barty maybe ask down in the French speaking section of MR. I've asked a question in that forum before, in English, and they were most helpful.

A great French book I read is Thérese Raquin by Emile Zola. I didn't find the vocab too difficult, and excellent plot!

I think the OP is asking for a "learning French" textbook rather than a French novel.

Seems the text books are going to be paper or PDF, so for now I'm using YouTube and various web sites(there are lots). I got a French > English dictionary for my kindle and I'm reading a couple of children / YA books on it.

I wish I could remember where I put my kindle keyboard (did I give it to somebody?) so I have the English version side by side for reference
