Gary Ghislain and 1 other person liked Sarah's review of Les Terrifiantes Aventures d'Horrific Jolie: tome 1: "Une tâche sur la moquette, ce n’est rien? Quand on s’appelle Horrific Jolie, ça fait débarquer le Diable dans le salon! Drôle, absurde et délicieusement impertinent, un chouette roman d’Halloween dès 8 ans !"
