It's snarky and bittersweet
Obscur fairytales

It's such a real book, feels like random texts sent by a friend
The paragraphs about men in public transport fhegffkhez

Idk if it's the translation but the pace is wonkyyyy
Otherwise i'm rather enjoying. It's very realistic and the direct anger is much needed

Michel Pastoureau jvm

It faces lots of truths with pure honesty, I can see how children of immigrants would relate so strongly to the anecdotes she tells.
But everything feels a bit confusing at the same time, it's hard to follow. Not fully stream of consciousness but still not really going anywhere?

I absolutely wasn't expecting to be moved by this series ?? But i'm almost on the verge of tears ngl
I found the topic rather empathetically approached here, which is a pleasant surprise for the time and a book written by a man. Marital rape being so firmly condemned isn't as common as it should be

Redneck soap opera and i'm living for it

Damn, I forgot how readable that was !!

Pas sûr que ça soit un coup de coeur, mais j'aime bien la maladresse feinte de l'écriture et l'atmosphère difficile à vraiment palper

All kinda mid :(

New Employee Orientation Guide for Snatch Day - 4,25 !! Fun

Dnfing this boring ass book

The Curl of Emma Jean - 3/5
The Wishing Well off Fordham Road - 4,25+

Doll Seed - 4,5 I simply ADORED this one. A shame it ended a bit abruptly but overall it was fantastic, the emotional rollercoaster was so strong !!

Etta, Zora and the First Serpent : 3,75 - Michele Tracy Berger's strong suit definitely are these longer stories. They're always offering a great mix of already well-known elements and unique takes on them. I usually really like the settings the most
Family Line - 3,25, just as Urban Wendy, I enjoy the shorter stories less, they have good plot points but do feel too abruptly ending

Nussia - 4/5 So fun, loved the take and the pacing suited the story very well.
Urban Wendy - 3/5 Cute but too short to be fully enjoyable

Uneven so far, some chapters I reall love, others I find a bit too opaque and distant.

So far, the mystery seems intriguing but the way it's presented is just so heavy and unsubtle it's a bit childish.
As for the rest, it's honestly boring and cliché.

Not scared yet but it's intriguing? The themes it intends to explore aren't fully obvious yet but I enjoy this waiting and this very simple pov so far. Lindsay is a rather believable children's voice so far !!

Jellyfish - 4,25
Wherever you go, there you are - 3,75

Someone ought to tell her there's nowhere to go - 4,5/5
