Great book about learning how to count to twelve. It’s really the illustration style that Munsch brings every time that give this book is importance. Funny and educative, some illustrations have also a search and find vibes to them. Because the things you have to count are not always at the front.

Great and beautiful story about so many things in such a little book. There is the importance of physical activity in the learning process, there is concentration at school, there is the debate of ADHD (real problem or lack of activity...) and of course, more on the illustration then the story, the importance of loving and accepting our body. Great work! That’s how you do children book!

A big anthology for the diehard fan of the Justice League. Information and tons of panels from those greatest moments. Those moments can be subjective and it may not be your top 100 but it will certainly bring back some good old memory.

Cute and funny story, kids would probably laugh a lot in this one, but the story was a bit too light for my own taste. The illustrations were beautiful in a very 3d modern style that should please the young ones. Not extraordinary, but worth it!

4,5/5. Good prequel to a great series. I read it after reading the first three books and I still enjoy it even if all the basic introduction to the world were a bit repetitive since I already knew most of it. It still can be read during the series, or start directly with it and you won’t be lost or bored in any way, and even if you don’t read it, you won’t be lost reading the others as well. So a good add-on to the series. A series that every fans, or future fans, of this series should read because it really worth it. Of course it’s a novella so it doesn’t have the depth of a novel, but there is still a good back story to this book on its own.

A really deep regard into insanity in this series and we go deeper and deeper in it and we not sure of anything anymore. Really good one!

Certainement pas le meilleur livre de cette auteure qui a pourtant beaucoup de talent. Trop de clichés, des dialogues longs, répétitifs et ennuyeux, un personnage principal qu'on aime peu et dont on souhaite la mort (peut-être pas pour tous, mais ce fut mon cas) et une intrigue inégale et inutilement longue. Il y a tout de même des éléments intéressants. J'ai beaucoup aimé le personnage de Gomez, dans la première moitié, sa relation avec sa femme, sa personnalité, tout cela était excellent, mais on perd également le tout dans la seconde partie du livre. J'ai bien aimé la fin, assez sombre, on est très loin de la fin heureuse ici, et avec un certain punch final qui vaut le coup. Finalement, même si la partie qu'arrivera-t-il à l’héroïne est ratée parce qu'on s'en fou complètement, la partie est-elle folle ou vraiment en danger est bien mené et nous ballote d'un côté à l'autre avec succès. Oui la protagoniste féminine qui n'est pas fiable a été vu et revu depuis les dernières années, mais ce livre date de 2012, alors à l'époque, c'était tout de même un concept relativement nouveau et original. On thriller correct, inégal, avec des hauts et des bas, qu'on ne regrette pas d'avoir lu, mais qu'on ne manque pas grand chose si on ne le lit pas non plus.

2,5/5. Unoriginal, a main character that I dislike like I didn’t eve though it was possible and a story that has been told a million time, not exactly like that but you know… The writing was fluid, but repetitive and just too slow for a thriller. We don’t really care what will happen to Cassie, so that’s a big problem because right there, when you don’t care about the main characters, you start losing interest. There is some political/international/spy/politics criticism in here, but too few and nothing deep or serious enough, just a background fact and opinion here and there. Not all bad, it’s readable, but there are so many thrillers on the market and a lot way better than this one, to make it worth reading.

Not the kind of story King has us used to, but a good one indeed! A bit light (not a bad joke here... it's a light story) and we lack a bit of answer in the end, we mostly have any. That being said, a great story about compassion, respect and standing up for those who need it. Too often it's the assholes who speak loud and over everyone and the smart and respectful, don,t wanting to be rude, don't speak or not loud enough, and I think that this attitude has got us where we are right now. I'm not speaking against respect, but respect is given to those who are respectful as well and the good people need to speak their mind and fight against the racism, sexism and every goddamn non sense and hate we see everywhere. And I think that's what King try to bring, some hope and some love in a era that need way more! A very elevating story!

3,5/5. Most of it was long and nothing really happen until the end, where a very important characters, that we don,t see that often, appears. It look promising for the next issue but the story need to evolve faster if it wants to keep me going!
