Les Petites Reines

Well this was one bicycle basket full of weird It emphatically didn t work for me I m not even sure what the book wanted to say I m not sure if it was for loving yourself or changing yourself And the plot was bizarre and the writing style was super strange at time, bouncing from being really young sounding up to them drinking and using the F word So who is the audience I DON T KNOW.But they kind of just accept this identity and embrace it And while I get that, in a way like if you take power in [...]

I loved the Sesame Seade series, a hilarious and smart middle grade mystery trilogy from Cl mentine Beauvais Piglettes shows us as if we didn t already know that Cl m has a unique voice in fiction This is her first YA novel, translated into English by herself, I might add from her 2015 French novel, Les Petites Reines Piglettes takes us on an unlikely adventure with three witty, quirky and smart protagonists, like the ones featured in her younger fiction But now Cl m s used her writing powers to [...]

Thank you, Pushkin Children s Books, for my advanced review copy of Piglettes I decided to DNF Piglettes by Cl mentine Beauvais at 21 %, after having finished chapter 7 of the advanced reader s copy.When I started Piglettes I was intrigued by the idea and the synopsis However, once I started it I quickly realized that this book was just not for me While the synopsis had intrigued me when I first read it I no longer felt the same excitement over the book s concept as I had the first time I encoun [...]

3 boudins 5 toilesLe personnage de Mireille est formidable

Frais, dr le et moderne, j ai pass un excellent moment avec ces 3 petites reines J ai aim le ton d complex de l auteur, ses piques acidul es, ses r f rences, ses prises de position et surtout, la place qu elle donne l intelligence et l humour de jeunes filles face au harc lement et aux diktats sociaux Une ode la bonne humeur, indispensable la construction d adolescent e s

Ce roman est tout simplement FORMIDABLE Je ne suis pas une tr s grande lectrice de litt rature jeunesse, mais je me suis plong e dans celui ci comme si ma vie en d pendait j exag re peine Les petites reines ce sont donc trois jeunes filles, plut t moches qui sont lues boudins de l ann e par le petit macho du lyc e Plut t que de se laisser d monter par ce titre cruel, elles deviennent amies, et partent en mission, v lo sur les routes de France en vendant rien de moins que du boudin pour financer [...]

Ce roman est une perle de litt rature jeunesse, clairement le coup de c ur que je n attendais pas Cl mentine Beauvais aborde avec une justesse rafra chissante la grossophobie et le harc lement scolaire et en ligne , en y glissant galement quelques remarques pertinente sur le sexisme, le racisme, la repr sentation Le tout est enrob par une histoire pleine d humour, de mignonnerie et d empowerment, et port par des h ro nes fabuleusement attachantes.

Premier coup de coeur de l ann e J adore l originalit et l criture de ce roman.

Full review also here lotsoflivres 2017 07 30 p Piglettes by Clementine Beauvais tells the story of 3 teenagers as they embark on a bike ride across France, as they become friends after being voted the ugliest girls in their school This story is full of adventure, surprises and hope, all held together with a blossoming friendship that is heartwarming to follow.Recently, I have seen quite a lot of hype about this book and I wasn t disappointed This book is such a light hearted, funny read, despit [...]

Zu Beginn des Buches lernen wir Mireille etwas w tend kennen, Astrid und Hakima haben es doch tats chlich geschafft, ihr den Platz als Wurst Nummer 1 streitig zu machen Somit ist sie nur noch das dritth sslichste M dchen ihrer Schule und das passt ihr nicht, denn diese doch sehr fiese Auszeichnung tr gt sie sonst mit W rde und viel Humor Astrid und Hakima gelingt dies aber scheinbar nicht, weshalb die drei M dchen recht schnell zusammenfinden und wie durch Zufall feststellen, dass alle etwas hab [...]

Oh that was outrageous And outrageously funny I am still snorting at Mireille s antics

not for me.

This was absolutely delightful

Loved this book It s a tough world for kids with social media these days and these girls overcome the hatred

What a bizarre little ride It felt totally uneven, with nearly no character development, but it was so strange and out of left field and also funny that I kept going.

Mehr nach Erscheinen.Aber man beachte bitte f nf Das gibt s bei mir nicht oft

J ai ador le p riple loufoque de ses trois ados lues boudins d or sur Facebook Les personnages sont attachants, certains passages sont absolument hilarants et sous couvert d une com die l g re, les r flexions, notamment f ministe, que le roman apporte sont intelligentes et loin des clich s La fin est mouvante et inattendue Bref, mon livre pr f r depuis le d but de l ann e, intelligent, hilarant et tr s bien crit.
