La selection but make it cunt. De gros problèmes de pacing selon moi, alors que le résumé était prometteur. Gabrielle réussi toujours tout ce qu'elle entreprend sans aucun problème, ce que j'ai trouvé assez frustrant. Pour autant, le roman est très bien écrit et se lit tout seul. Le plot twist est bien trouvé et m'a redonné envie de continuer ma lecture.

Not understanding the rules of baseball made this very complicated to like i think. The pacing felt a bit wonky as well, but it was an alright read, just not for me !

This one took me a little bit more time to get into, but it was so so so worthy anyways. I'm devastated to say goodbye to Gem, Rory, Enzo (and Poppy and Marian) but i'm happy with the conclusion they all got ! Amazing book as always

Girlboss medusa retelling. Love the concept, hated the execution and the oddly modern writing. Not for me, even though i do stand with the message.
