Growing up in a very old house in Normandie surrounded by orchards and horses did not stop Anouk from falling head-over-heels for Paris and the Quartier Latin, where she graduated from La Sorbonne with a double bachelor’s, after a one-year detour in Cairo. Like all the women in her family (uncanny !), she ended up spending her days surrounded by books or talking about them. Her favorite time of year ? La rentrée littéraire, when dozens of new novels land on the shelves and she sets out to read as many as humanly possible. If you are looking for a novel to bet on this fall or simply want to share your opinion on your latest read, you know who to ask for !
