Bonjour!
Cela fait assez longtemps que je ne vous ai pas parlé de wishlist, et encore plus longtemps que je ne vous ai pas fait une wishlist en VO!
Ma faiblesse (mon ÉNORME faiblesse) étant de trainer sur Goodreads, je me retrouvais toujours avec des tonnes de pépites en VO en plus dans ma wishlist. Alors après un tri, voici les titres qui me font le plus envie en ce moment!
N’hésitez pas à me donner vos perles VO en commentaire, même si ma PAL ne vous remerciera pas, vous aurez mon éternelle reconnaissance pour vos petites recommandations!
Je vous souhaite une bonne lecture et j’espère vous faire découvrir des nouveaux titres!
P.S: Les résumés sont en VO, je ne sais pas du tout si certains romans ont été traduits ou non en français!

❝ Say you’ll remember me ❞
Katie McGarry
Résumé: When Drix was convicted of a crime–one he didn’t commit–he thought his life was over. But opportunity came with the new Second Chance Program, the governor’s newest pet project to get delinquents off the streets, rehabilitated and back into society. Drix knows this is his chance to get his life back on track, even if it means being paraded in front of reporters for a while.
Elle knows she lives a life of privilege. As the governor’s daughter, she can open doors with her name alone. But the expectations and pressure to be someone she isn’t may be too much to handle. She wants to follow her own path, whatever that means.
When Drix and Elle meet, their connection is immediate, but so are their problems. Drix is not the type of boy Elle’s parents have in mind for her, and Elle is not the kind of girl who can understand Drix’s messy life.
But sometimes love can breach all barriers.

❝ A quiet kind of thunder ❞
Sara Barnard
Résumé: Steffi has been a selective mute for most of her life – she’s been silent for so long that she feels completely invisible. But Rhys, the new boy at school, sees her. He’s deaf, and her knowledge of basic sign language means that she’s assigned to look after him. To Rhys, it doesn’t matter that Steffi doesn’t talk, and as they find ways to communicate, Steffi finds that she does have a voice, and that she’s falling in love with the one person who makes her feel brave enough to use it.
