adventurous mysterious medium-paced

Un bon tome. Premier tome de comics que je lis centrés sur cette équipe. J’avais déjà vu la dynamique entre Dinah et Barbare, et j’aime énormément le trio qu’elles forment avec Helena. Trois personnages qui fonctionnent très bien ensemble. 
L’histoire ralentit à certains moments qui donnent envie de passer à autre chose. Mais ça reste un bon tome. Je lirai définitivement la suite

First, a bisexual morally grey thief who is also a simp? Sign me up! Second of all, thank you NetGalley and Aconyte for sending me an e-arc of this book.


I have to admit that at first, I didn’t know where it was going and I was really perplexed. I was like “yes, I don’t think it’s going to do it.” But I kept going and I really liked it. The thing that really made me like it, are the characters and their relationship. Felicia and her crew are entertaining, and we can totally see how they care for each other’s, and how they trust each other. Also, Casey was a good surprise and an excellent addition to the team. I just love their dynamics.


And what can I say, I love a good heist story, and there are many heists in this one. It was my first time reading anything with Felicia, aka Black Cat, and I have to admit that I really liked her, and I want to read more about this character and her interactions with the other heroes. Also, I hope a sequel is coming because of the ending.


I had an uncorrected proof so not everything might be in the book in the final version. But there are some things that I didn’t really like, some of the descriptions were too much, I felt like they could have been cut off, or shortened. Also, some action scenes can seem a bit messy.


But most of all, a good book, with suspense. You just have to keep going if you don’t really like it at first.

I didn’t like all the stories but it was a really good anthology. The characters were great and I loved seeing more. The last story was so important and impactful. The foreword too. Like it was really great. Some of the vibes weren’t it. Like Jon saying that pride is now a party… come on man… I’ve read Superman son of Kal-El, would you really say that? Also the straight flag?

But otherwise. Yes it was good. Some stories were even GREAT

I started this book as a buddy read but finished it before everyone else. It was just captivating. The story, the characters. It was not what I imagined, but it was really really great. Don’t stop at the blurb. It’s much more than that. 

Three people who have their fates tangled together. Victims or monster? You’ll discover more by reading it

funny fast-paced

Thank you NetGalley and First Second for sending me an e-arc of this book. I first picked it up because of the pun in the title, without knowing that this is a 6th book. 

But it’s easy to read as a stand alone, it’s funny, there are great puns (I love puns) and the author loves to break the fourth wall (maybe even the fifth) and I love when a media does that

« Moi je veux mourrir, tu comprends? »

Le monde le sait. Le prince du crime est maintenant connu du grand public. Ce dernier a même révéler la liste des nobles qu’ils comptes tuer. Jusqu’à son dernier meurtre…

Mais le reste de la famille doit aussi affronter la décision de William de porter tout le poids des crimes. Ce dernier veut garder la souillures pour lui. Mais les autres que veulent-ils? J’ai adoré ce tome dans la psychologie des personnages. Fred, Moran, Louis, William… le reste de la famille. Bref encore un bon tome. Et pleins d’émotions. 

L’étau se resserre sur Will et Sherlock qui lui aussi prend une décision sur son évolution. Comment cela va-t-il finir? Svp Kana sortez les tomes plus vites je peux pas attendre 😭😭😭 Merci d’avance

Great and complex characters, like the relationships between them. While reading this book you’ll cry, laugh, let out a breath you didn’t know you were holding, you’ll hate. You will have so many emotions. À story about destiny and greatness. 

What would you be capable of for greatness?

Merci aux éditions YBY pour l’envoie de ce livre. J’ai adoré lire cette novella. Une histoire intrigante et vraiment intéressante, un mélange de mythologie égyptienne et de dystopie. Les personnages ont leur évolutions, et leur défauts et leur force. Cela les rend humaines… même pour celle qui ne l’est pas👀

J’ai vraiment beaucoup aimé. Le rythme est vraiment top et ça ne donne pas envie de lâcher le livre jusqu’à la fin. 

Bref bravo pour cette publication!
