i picked this up yesterday at the toronto comic arts festival because the cover caught my eye. i immediately fell in love with the beautiful drawings (they remind me a bit of hilary knight) and the hilarity and even the shoes that margaux is wearing in the comics. now i am obsessed. OBSESSED.

but oh the agony! this is the only one of motin's books that has been translated into english. i can get a google translate of her blog, but none of the handwritten words in her illustrations translate (obviously). AGH.

so now i have to learn french.
