This is the first book I read V. Despentes and does not end badly. For that alone, it deserves to be highlighted. And although we are still very far from complacent optimism, this book is slightly less creepy than the previous, and the character of Pauline actually quite positive.
Yet I admit I preferred the "highbrow bitches" for outstanding and the power of the story.
But these "pretty things" are still very recommendable!
