French Literature Final Boss
=== Stable! ===
Based on my original post on having quests for French Literature, I made starter packs (check my profile 👀) but I'm thinking we just need a big dump! Thanks to everyone participating!
This list covers books across time by French authors (as in people that have the nationality no matter their origins) and can hopefully incentivize crossovers with the Francophonie mon amour list!
Check comments to see how I diversified the list!
Books We Danced
A compilation of the books and tales that inspired dance and ballet pieces across the world
French Classics ⁺‧₊˚ ☕️⋆°｡⋆🥐 ˚₊‧⁺
This list comprises numerous French classics, from romantic epics, to realist critiques of society, to philosophical fiction, to scandalous stories, poetry, & more! I’ll be updating it sporadically.

Based on my original post on having quests for French Literature! Thanks to everyone that participated in the discussion and helped me put these together!
This list covers books published between the 12th and the 19th centuries. See comments for more info on the methodology I used!

Hella long and old French Literature
As said in the name, this is a list to long (a bit boring) and old french literature that I would consider good books (because frenchies don't lack of those )
This is a list of books from the XIX c. (and before). Some books are just 150 pages long because they are plays
(Feel free to tell me if you want me to add books to the list, I will be adding some myself as I can't think about every book right now...)
Yearning Beyond Time
