J'ai lu ce livre plusieurs fois déjà, mais ça faisait un moment. Depuis le temps, je me rends compte qu'il est effectivement à visée d'un public de jeunes adultes. Ça reste un excellent livre de dystopie (encore que, la réalité nous rattrape), et je demeure contente de le relire. Je recommande toujours, même si ayant vieilli, je n'en suis plus la cible.

An exceptional writer, with an obviously brilliant mind and capacity for self reflection. 
Sharing a huge chunk of Stephanie Foo's traumas, I can tell you that this is THE book you need to read to understand all about CPTSD... And the people who carry that beast within.
No other words to say than "Incredible job. Well done, and thank you."

I'm a huge, huge fan and lover of the tv show. Therefore, and because everyone was recommending to read the book, I did just that.
Turns out I didn't love it. Liked it, for sure ; but that's it. I felt a lack of emotion from the main character, which makes sense, considering she's probably dissociating, what with all the trauma. Still, I was expecting more rage, more revolting, more feelings and such. Therefore, yes, it's a good book, but no, it didn't leave me satisfied.
Although, probs to the author for seeing the future of the United States, and bringing to the public's view the horrors of sexism and general misogyny.
Under Her Eye, we shall unite.

Wow. That's all I have to say. The author got them fucked up stalkers understood to perfection. For obvious reasons, I mean, she got one hellish specimen to handle.
This is the perfect book for whomever wants to understand what's going on in predator's minds. Highly recommend.

Un livre sincèrement brillant, que je viens de lire pour la seconde fois, avec toujours autant de plaisir. Tant la forme que la critique de la société que propose ce roman sont délicieuses. Des longueurs descriptives sont à signaler, cependant, à l'occasion. Il n'en reste pas moins que ça n'est pas un motif pour ne pas lire ce chef-d'œuvre !

Currently doing a binge of John Marrs books, and got to say, I liked this one a lot ! Kudos on the originality of the subject, and the writing was nicer than the previous book of his that I read.

It was a very nice book, a good read, and I enjoyed it, until the (to be honest, predictable) very end. I don't have a lot to say, I'm already not the hugest fan of IA, we're living through the dark times that this book is denouncing, and this book comforted me in that line of thought.
The writing is good, though very "classic", in the sense that it's not out of the (nice) ordinary. 
Recommend it, although it's not a book I'll read many times, as I do with some.

Écoutez, j'ai bien aimé, mais BEAUCOUP moins que les deux premiers tomes de la série. 
C'était long, un retour dans le passé de bien 100 ou 200 pages par exemple, c'est trop. Ça reste bien émotionnel tout ça, j'ai été bien émue à divers moments du livre, et l'écriture reste spectaculaire, mais je trouve qu'on en a perdu.

Toujours exactement les mêmes réflexions que pour le premier tome. Écriture sublime, personnages d'une grande profondeur, histoire remarquable, qui provoque des émotions comme rares y arrivent les romans. 
Seul défaut, à mon sens : l'accentuation prosélyte du premier livre a empiré, et même si ça fait sens, dans ce contexte de science-fiction / fantastique, ce n'est toujours pas ma tasse de thé.

Grande fan ! Je l'avais déjà lu, et je l'ai relu pour finir la trilogie avec la mémoire des premiers romans en tête. Toujours un régal, une histoire émouvante, et qui dans le même temps vous fera grincer des dents, de peur... Ou de frustration devant ce que vous savez, et que les personnages ne voient pas 😂 L'écriture est délicieuse, le livre peut sembler très long et pourtant, ce n'est pas le cas, je n'y ai pas vu de longueurs déplorables. 
Je retire cependant une infime portion de points pour une once d'excessif patriotisme et de religion à laquelle je ne suis clairement pas affiliée, ni, donc, sensible.
