Non-English Editions of RWRB & Boyfriend Material


I’ve just made some recent acquisitions for my ever growing library of My Favorite Books Of All Time. For years now I’ve been studying Russian off and on, mostly on my own in addition to the college course I took many years ago. I recently started learning Swedish via Duolingo  (which I’m having a lot of fun with and making excellent progress on!) so I decided to seek out copies of my two favorite romances in those languages. I enjoy paging through them to see how much I can recognize and translate - and it’s good practice!

I knew from Instagram and some googling that Russian editions existed of Red White & Royal Blue as well as Boyfriend Material, and also discovered that RWRB has also been translated into Swedish. (I may actually be able to read most of that one 😂) 

The Russian editions I got from Ruslania.com (a very good website for a lovely store based in Finland - I can vouch for their excellent customer service) and the Swedish edition I got from Book Depository via AbeBooks.com. And I’m SO excited! Look how beautiful they are! The Russian editions have a really cool anime vibe. And I love that they’re hardback! I’m so excited to add these to my shelves.

What do you think? Have you ever bought an edition of a book not in your native language for any reason?
