In Montardon, two passionate readers, Ingrid Ledru and Johanna Beragne, have created the association L’Échappée littéraire to bring together romance enthusiasts.

The association L’Échappée littéraire, founded by Ingrid Ledru and Johanna Beragne, aims to share the passion for reading and creativity within the world of romance. Based in Montardon, it caters to fans of new romance, dark romance, and romantasy.
The program includes thematic weekends dedicated to specific books, featuring reading sessions, discussions, and creative activities. Members can also participate in workshops for making bookmarks, decorating bookshelves, or creating reading trackers.
