I mostly read in French. My all time fav is a book called "Bonheur
D'occasion" by Gabrielle Roy. It's a wonderful story, told with wit
and grace.
Other wonderful books: "Volkswagen blues", by Jacques Poulin,
"Candide ou l'optimisme", by Voltaire, "La magie de voir grand", by
David Schwartz ... there are many more .. :)
TV shows: I love CSI, Criminal Minds, En Therapie (Sur TV5), The
Colbert Report, The daily show; lately, I have taken an interest in
"Toute la vérité" on CFTM.
Movies: Avatar, Inception, V for Vendetta, Crazy stupid love, ... I
just love movies, and I have a ton of them.
