Les vendredi 13 sont vu comme mauavais cars cetait le jour que le roi Philip le bel avait fait arreter tous les Templiers de la France au même jour. Et leurs bruler vif. Les fourmis avait échappés ça, au moins.
Friday the 13th is considered bad luck because that was the day that king Philip the Handsome of France managed to pull off the arrest of every Knight Templar in France on the same day. And burned them at the stake. At least the ants escaped that fate.

Voicie mon revu du 2me livre de serie Fourmis par Werber, ce que j’au acquis par la biblioteque d’un bled pourri dans le 56 en Bretagne.
I got this book out of the public library in one of the small and very forgettable towns of Morbihan, in Britanny. (Dans le 56, as they say there, for the postal code beginning in 56…).
I found this second book in the Ants saga disappointing due to the increased spiritualism and preachiness, which his first book in this series touched on, but not nearly as heavily. He also gets a few things wrong that begin to become annoying by the end of the book.
J’ai trouvé ce livre pas a mon gout parce que le spiritualisme et ses efforts de nous dire quoi penser m’ont gêné. Ce n’était pas si lourd dans son premier livre. Aussi, il a raté quelques chose qui me commencé à gêner par le fin du livre.

So, it turns out that I don’t like any of his other books as much as I did that first book (Ants). But it kept my attention enough to improve my French, and also my empathy for ants.
More on my continuing striving with French next week, friends:
Salût !
Actions in support of literacy and hope that you can take right now:
1.) Share two different resources to translate the word “ants” into French.
2.) Share your thoughts on how you like each of the resources you found, perhaps as an update on your GoodReads reading,
3.) Write a blog post or tweet that uses a French word, tells a good story, and makes a difference. Once published, donate one or more copies to your local public library, as I intend to do.
