Customer Review

I have read the comments of critics before buying the book, thank you.
I have recorded the disappointed who call themselves "fans" of the first hour but, alas, found Anna Gavalda had apparently managed to write the most common book of the year.
It's just if I did not hesitate, I who had long awaited the moment when finally I finally had in my hands.
But eventually. I want to say.
Anna Gavalda, right.
What did you expect so you "fans" who love both the author?
Anna Gavalda, this is not the intellectual unpacking, we are aware of. If this is what you are looking for, then this is that you had forgotten, the time has flown, re-read them so the stories on three under "type that are five" in the narrow escape, swear words This in Franck expensive Together, that's all. The stories "murky" as you say so veterinarians campaign who take revenge on their abusers by subjecting them to an unorthodox operation in I Wish Someone Were Waiting somewhere.
And that is also why we love him, a little, right?
It is also because we love them, these big words, those good words that make us "giggle stupidly" as she says herself.
Because Anna Gavalda, this is not the intellectual unpacking, no, you're right, of course, is the emotional unpacking. Billie and that's it. It's beautiful emotional mess mess that makes us smile a little laugh sometimes, even that girl leads a life "creepy" and sad. But it was so real. So real, no doubt, it has not pleased everyone this time. But it is also that. There are not as Camille Fauque who have gold at your fingertips and are far too intellectual for their little world in the novels of Anna Gavalda. There is also room for Billie, who make the wrong choices, which include half Alfred de Musset, but who understand their way. And also have a beautiful philosophy in them, even though they make mistakes, as everyone eventually.
This bet is won then, it is stronger than the Consolation, who bored us a little, admittedly, but it was natural because Charles himself was bored of his own life at a time and did not know what to do.
This is the magic of the characters of Anna Gavalda. We believe in it. We believe in it precisely because it sounds raw, it sounds bold, sure, but it just sounds and finally it still resonates when one closes the book.
I prefer the words of a big Anna Gavalda happens to pull my emotions, thrills, elation, to the great words of Amélie Nothomb or otherwise, that, trying too hard to dazzle us, forget us thrill.
Perhaps this is not what is expected by the readers.
I am still waiting for it a novel. I expect it to take me and transports me.
Then of course not, the choice of these characters then, is not easy, because as usual, Anna Gavalda, it does not skimp, no no, she did not go with the back of the spoon, it drives the point, she saw her characters. Then she tells us about the hard life of Billie with harsh words Billie.
And it's not easy to accept that for the reader who wants nice ideas, poetry and above all, we do not put it under the nose things "glaucous" arriving in the next village.
And okay, it's not that it's creepy. It saves us a lot of things, she says herself, she does not fall into clichés, it gives life a character that surely exists somewhere. If so, we believe it is what is said, reading Billie.
Then she won the bet.
Now, perhaps people do not want to bring into their lives these "illegal" here these Billie Franck and these are not like any other but who have dreams too, and full of beautiful things bottom of my heart if they are reaching out.
"I happened to stay several weeks without going to meet him, but he has never failed in its rule. Every Wednesday during school holidays and for almost three years, I got to my lousy postcard with a "I hope you're okay, I'm fine" written behind and each time, occasionally, I met the eyes of a human being who did not judge me. "
They are not beautiful, then those two sentences?
Billie, it has a scent of Together is while harder, and more stirred. But it's her, I recognized her.
Anna Gavalda, right.
