Judy Blume
164 books12.3k followersJudy Blume spent her childhood in Elizabeth, New Jersey, making up stories inside her head. She has spent her adult years in many places doing the same thing, only now she writes her stories down on paper. Adults as well as children will recognize such Blume titles as: Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret; Blubber; Just as Long as We're Together; and the five book series about the irrepressible Fudge. She has also written three novels for adults, Summer Sisters; Smart Women; and Wifey, all of them New York Times bestsellers. More than 80 million copies of her books have been sold, and her work has been translated into thirty-one languages. She receives thousands of letters a year from readers of all ages who share their feelings and concerns with her.

Judy is a longtime advocate of intellectual freedom. Finding herself at the center of an organized book banning campaign in the 1980's she began to reach out to other writers, as well as teachers and librarians, who were under fire. Since then, she has worked tirelessly with the National Coalition Against Censorship to protect the freedom to read. She is the editor of Places I Never Meant To Be, Original Stories by Censored Writers.

J'ai eu la chance de pouvoir lire cette réédition d'un roman jeunesse paru dans les années 80, et je me dois de féliciter l'incroyable couverture qui donne vraiment envie de plonger dans les tourments adolescents de Katherine et Michael.
Une lecture simple qui met en avant les premiers émois, le premier véritable amour, celui qui donne des ailes, qui donne envie de passer son temps avec l'être aimé, qui fait souffrir aussi, qui fait plonger dans les affres de la jalousie, celui qui va devoir être confronté au passage à la vie d'adulte. Car leur amour va-t-il résister à la distance s'ils sont dans deux universités différentes ? Est-ce que leurs parents ont raison de leur conseiller la prudence, que le premier amour est rarement le seul, qu'il ne faudrait pas s'enfermer et passer à côté de sa vie ? C'est aussi un roman qui aborde les premières relations sexuelles, le désir, la contraception (et il faut le remettre dans son contexte des années 80), Katherine ayant la chance d'être dans une famille plutôt ouverte.
Néanmoins et c'est vraiment dommage, j'ai trouvé la fin un peu rapide, on quitte nos personnages comme ça, sans trop de transition et ça laisse un petit goût d'amertume...
