Habe das Buch bereits in der achten Klasse (2013/14) gelesen und meine Meinung dazu hat sich bisher nicht geändert :D 190 Seiten, die man schnell und flüssig lesen kann trotz kleiner Schrift. Drei Sterne für eine solide Geschichte.
3,5 ⭐️ Premier livre que je lis en Allemand et du pont de vue d’une française qui commence à lire en langue étrangère, ce livre est vraiment bien. Il me semble quand même que c’est normalement un livre pour enfant ou pré ado mais on ne s’ennuie pas et le vocabulaire est varié et permet vraiment de progresser. L’histoire ne va pas trop vite et on comprend tout plutôt facilement. Je ne sais pas si j’aurais autant apprécié lire le livre en français car ce n’est pas ce que je lis d’habitude mais pour une découverte par hatsard j’ai été agréablement surprise.
i live in hamburg. in this book hamburg sounds kinda gross haha idk. i liked the book well enough, i looooved alex, he was my favorite character, i liked the style of storytelling (flashback and fashforward the foreshadowing on what'll happen in the end and stuff)
i think the fact that alex died in the end (no spoiler he dies at the end of the book but we know that he dies from the very first page) interesting and i liked his death idk.
good book, i read it in school the first time maybe thats the reason i didn't love it, books you reading school are generally worse than they actually are.
