Going back to my dystopian YA era, cause everything was much simpler back then.

Going into this completely blind. I need to see for myself what's this all about (it helps that it's on KU, ngl). If you guys really need therapy. If I need therapy as well ?

First story had me gasped out loud, and repeat "Ho God" 10 times now. I am shooketh.

SPOILERS I GUESS. BUT WHAT THE FUCK. One of the MC just got raped, like an hour ago, and she wants to have sex with her boyfriend ? What the fuck ? I guess I shouldn't be surprised as it's Laymon we're talking about..

Quelle injustice..

J'adore, ce livre se lit tellement vite et c'est du grand n'importe quoi (dans le bon sens) !

Déjà, le business man qui part EN MAUGRÉANT, personne, et je dis bien PERSONNE fait ça.
Ensuite, au calme, Mark qui prend son portable. Pas de verrouillage d'écran, quelle chance.
Et enfin, les essais de mot de passe.. Et le business man toujours pas revenu des toilettes, après 3000 tentatives de MdP.
Mais le pire, BIEN SÛR qu'il allait le trouver ce MdP. Et quel mot de passe. Franchement chapeau. Et en 5 minutes !

Alors elle, elle vaut un milliard de dollars, mais elle prend un vol commercial, en sachant qu'elle va se faire harceler de tous les côtés ? Logique.

Page 15, le copain qui dit "t'es sûre que tu veux venir avec moi chercher la voiture, ça peut être dangereux !" (Lol, qui dit ça déjà) et UNE PAGE PLUS TARD, ils se font braqués ! Io. C'est vraiment pas de chance.
Et encore pire, le gars il obtient ce qu'il veut des deux direct (bijoux, argent et dignité), mais il a QUAND MÊME envie de planter cette pauvre femme ! Il faut qu'on m'explique. Psychologie, Zéro.

What the actual Fuck. This is so sick, I don't have words. What. The. Fuck.
Not even shocked by Thelma's and Wesley's actions (well, yes of course I am), but the INACTION of Rupert. And then you're giving reasons as to why you didn't try to stop a 14 year-old being fucking beaten and raped ? Because you're, I quote, "a miserable, horny pervert" ? And "owe allegiance to" the only 3 bitches you know ? WHAT THE FUCK.

End of book one, and I'm a bit confused. Much happens, and in 120 pages, that doesn't left a lot for explanation as to how the worlds are constructed, the rules, etc... too rushed and feeling overwhelmed.
Will see how it develops in book two.

He said, "How come all these grapefruits are on the floor ?"
"Because I like them like that."

This is why I love Bukowski so much.

"Je sais bien qu'aucune personne de moins de cinquante ans ne me croira, mais je prétends que les braises vous réchauffent parfois mieux que les flammes."

"It seemed like an awful lot of rubbing for a little warmth."

H'ahaha dieded.

Love the writing style.

Going back in my childhood .. :)

Mehh.

Hard to get into the story, I wish there was a bit more action.

This book is incredibly written and just so beautiful.

(I'm reading the French version, so don't know if it's the same in the original one) 5 times that the name Glass got mixed up with the Clarke one. To be honest, it is getting a bit annoying.
