Her favorite quote:

No more holding on to my lies.

I felt lost.

For real.

I was alone.

Albertine had deceived me - perhaps, I was asking to see - and she had embarked her cliques and slaps for Sweden.


Why this book?

  • Because we never tire of the characters of losers

    who understand nothing about life and who need a kick in the buttocks to mature.

    There, it is the departure of his companion who has had enough of living with an eternal teenager who refuses to grow up.

    Cruel or necessary?

    You choose…

  • Because this book combines two loves: the 

    one we risk losing and the one we hope for.

    And Paul McCartney is one of those dreams that we believe to be impossible: one day to meet his idol.

    But between postulating and realizing, there is a world that only literature can cross.

    And between living off your passions or being reasonable, you have to choose whether you want to stay as a couple.

  • Because even if it is sewn with white thread, if we expect a happy ending, we like to read the adventures and the springs that the author offers us.

    The first part is perhaps a bit cartoonish, but the second quite tasty.
