French Literature Final Boss
=== Work in progress ===
Based on my original post on having quests for French Literature, I made starter packs but I'm thinking we just need a big dump! Thanks to everyone that participated and still do!
This list covers books across time by French authors (needs to be discussed and refined but hopefully can be inclusive and incentivize crossovers with the Francophonie mon amour list!)
Please be indulgent while I work on it and hop in the convo!
