Again funny and entertaining!

3,5/5. Certainly not the best one of the series, but like always funny and entertaining. I will probably be the last one I read in this collection. I've seen what I wanted to about it.

2,5/5. Literacy experimentation where an author rewrite/edited pieces of an old diary she fund and turn it into fictional diary I guess... Original take but the result is a bit empty, the writing and the moment describe has a kind of melancholic beauty to them but it just isn't enough to make a good book!

Funny little cartoons. In the vibes of Peanuts and Garfield. Mostly one page comic, not much for an adult reader, so I didn’t personally enjoy it much, but I know that I was not the targeted reader and I also know that this was the kind of comic I would have like and laugh while reading as a kid. Good and funny for children!

3,5/5. I like the deep message behind the story which was good, important and just perfectly well balance between to obvious and just obscure. Unfortunately the story in itself and the illustrations where just okay, very average, not really captivating, but not bad in anyway...

Une relecture de ce roman après l’avoir lu il y a entre 15 et 20 ans déjà… Bien que j’en gardais un souvenir assez flou, sans cesse, en relisant, je me rappelais les événements en cours de lecture. Un roman qui permet de faire découvrir Lestat lus en profondeur, mais aussi d’autres vampires, plus anciens, des chroniques des vampires tels que Armand et Marius. Un peu lent comme rythme par moment, je maintiens donc ma note de quatre étoiles, mais une beauté gothique fidèle à Anne Rice, des personnages bien développés et profonds et une histoire intéressante à travers le temps et les âges. J’ai bien aimé et j’ai bien hâte de poursuivre la lecture des chroniques des vampires.

Pas pour moi! Je m’attendais à quelque chose de plus réfléchis, mais on se retrouve dans un livre d’humour simple sur la vie en générale et beaucoup de «chialage» sur le thème du «Oh mon Dieu m’a vie est tellement difficile!». Une grosse déception pour moi!

Je n'ai pas aimé, surtout la structure, le rythme, quelque chose qui collait mal pour moi. Peut-être dû à la traduction. Je demeure perplexe, mis je n’ai pas vraiment apprécié!

Not the best one of this collection. Not often, but here and then, they seem to present a lesser kind of book, less information, lesser quality of illustration, more minimalist/simple, And the ARC copy I got just seem a bit unfinished, not having the cover and all included in the file. Might need a bit more polishing, but still interesting when it came to Vivienne Westwood.

3,5/.5 Closer to a contemporary with a dark twist then a real thriller in my opinion, this book still does a good job being what it is. We really get and feel the struggle of the main characters overcoming her past and her mothers thoughts always creeping inside her heads. There was too many casual school life and teenagers bullying stuff for my own personal taste, but if you want to get teenagers, or young adults, to read thriller then this book does a very good transition and introduction to what might be a new genre for them. Original style, well enough written and characters that escape the trap of cliches and stereotypes quite well. Not what I was expecting, but surprisingly good at the same time!
