Bonsoir!
Je suis super heureuse de vous retrouver, comme d’habitude en fin de moi, pour mon petit bookhaul! Ce mois ci, il n’y a pas beaucoup de nouveautés car je n’ai pas été motivée ni pour lire, ni pour acheter. J’espère que le mois d’août sera plus productif, surtout côté lecture!
Je vous souhaite une bonne semaine!
❝Eleanor & Park❞
Rainbow Rowell
Résumé: Eleanor is the new girl in town, and she’s never felt more alone. All mismatched clothes, mad red hair and chaotic home life, she couldn’t stick out more if she tried. Then she takes the seat on the bus next to Park. Quiet, careful and – in Eleanor’s eyes – impossibly cool, Park’s worked out that flying under the radar is the best way to get by. Slowly, steadily, through late-night conversations and an ever-growing stack of mix tapes, Eleanor and Park fall in love. They fall in love the way you do the first time, when you’re 16, and you have nothing and everything to lose.
❝When the sky fell on Splendor❞
Emily Henry
Résumé: Almost everyone in the small town of Splendor, Ohio, was affected when the local steel mill exploded. If you weren’t a casualty of the accident yourself, chances are a loved one was. That’s the case for seventeen-year-old Franny, who, five years after the explosion, still has to stand by and do nothing as her brother lies in a coma. In the wake of the tragedy, Franny found solace in a group of friends whose experiences mirrored her own. The group calls themselves The Ordinary, and they spend their free time investigating local ghost stories and legends, filming their exploits for their small following of YouTube fans. It’s silly, it’s fun, and it keeps them from dwelling on the sadness that surrounds them. Until one evening, when the strange and dangerous thing they film isn’t fiction–it’s a bright light, something massive hurtling toward them from the sky. And when it crashes and the teens go to investigate…everything changes.
❝The serpent king❞
Jeff Zentner
Résumé: Dill isn’t the most popular kid at his rural Tennessee high school. After his father fell from grace in a public scandal that reverberated throughout their small town, Dill became a target. Fortunately, his two fellow misfits and best friends, Travis and Lydia, have his back. But as they begin their senior year, Dill feels the coils of his future tightening around him. His only escapes are music and his secret feelings for Lydia–neither of which he is brave enough to share. Graduation feels more like an ending to Dill than a beginning. But even before then, he must cope with another ending–one that will rock his life to the core. Debut novelist Jeff Zentner provides an unblinking and at times comic view of the hard realities of growing up in the Bible belt, and an intimate look at the struggles to find one’s true self in the wreckage of the past.
❝Short love stories❞
Karuho Shiina – Tome 2
Résumé: Retrouvez plusieurs histoires courtes dans le tome 2 de Short love stories signé Karuho Shiina, l’auteur de Sawako.
❝L’attaque des titans❞
Hajime Isayama – Tome 1
Résumé: Le monde appartient désormais aux Titans, des êtres gigantesques qui ont presque décimé l’Humanité. Voilà une centaine d’années, les derniers rescapés ont bâti une place forte, une cité cernée d’une haute muraille au sein de laquelle vivent aujourd’hui leurs descendants. Parqués, ignorants tout du monde extérieur, ils s’estiment au moins à l’abri de ces effroyables êtres qui ne feraient d’eux qu’une bouchée. Hélas, cette illusion de sécurité vole en éclats le jour où surgit un Titan démesuré, encore bien plus colossal que tous les autres. S’engage alors un combat désespéré pour la survie du genre humain…
