So I heard about this book. And I normally read on my phone now a days so I was looking to see if there was an electronic version, but I have not been able to find one, is this something I'm only gonna find in like paperback?

A huge part of this book is the way the typography is laid across the page. If you're reading it on your phone you will lose the formatting. It's still a good story, but you'll be missing out on the whole experience.

French is one of the best languages for reading. Instead of translating things into French, why don't you actually read French literature? Eh?

This is probably a good place to start:
