No one knows how it happened. But it'll change their lives forever . . .

During a terrifying storm, Air France flight 006 - inexplicably - duplicates.

For every passenger, there are now two: a double with the same mind, body and memories.

Only one thing sets them apart - while one plane lands in March, the other doesn't arrive until June.

Nothing can explain this unprecedented event. But for each duplicated passenger, an impossible moment of reckoning awaits.

If there are two of you, and just one life . . . who gets to live it?

<<Eine berührende und zugleich urkomische Geschichte>> ist die passende beschreibung für dieses buch.

This is such a fantastic book. Klara is an AI in a humanoid robot body who gets adopted as a companion for a sick teenager - or so she thinks.
Which first sounds like fun little sci-fi story is really a deep dive into what it means to be human and if there is something that makes a person inherently human and things inherently non-human. It's about whether there's aspects to human thought and behaviour that can't be learned and reproduced by an algorithm, a soul if you will.
I read it because it's on the school curriculum this year and I just wanted to know what it's about and I'm really glad I did. It's a book that will only get more relevant as technology progresses and that will spark important debates.

Lust auf einen kleinen Besuch in einer japanischen Buchhandlung? Hier ist jeder richtig der aus dem Alltag ausbrechen möchte und etwas zum Nachdenken sucht und abschalten möchte. Eine wunderbare Geschichtensammlung, die zurecht für den japanischen Buchhändlerpreis nominiert wurde.

Tilda kümmert sich liebevoll um ihre jüngere Schwester, da die Mutter alkoholkrank ist und beide vernachlässigt. Zerrissen zwischen Verantwortung und Selbstverwirklichung sucht sie ihren eigenen Weg. Sehr gut geschrieben, unbedingt lesen!

Ready for a little visit to a japanese bookshop? This is the right place for anyone who wants to escape from everyday life and is looking for something think about. A wonderful collection of stories that was deservedly nominated for the Japanese Bookseller Award.

In a world of "Elites" and "Ordinaries", where the Elites are superior in every way, could one Ordinary change the way of life for all of those that have been banned and murdered in the Kingdom of Ilya?
The next trials are going to be different than all that came before, because Kai, the second son of the King and an Elite, needs to prove himself to the people of Ilya and show that he is worthy to be the next "Enforcer". Meanwhile Paedyn, an Ordinary from the Slums, gets dragged into the trials and has only one goal: survive.
But things quickly get more complicated as the chemistry between Kai and Paedyn grows (and the banter between those two should not be missed).
A wonderful new world of fantasy for all lovers of "The Hunger Games" and "Crowns of Nyaxia".

La librairie décline toute responsabilité si, après cette lecture, vous voulez absolument partir en haute montagne.

At the age of 8, Alice begins to see other people's emotions in the form of colourful auras surrounding them. As we follow Alice on her life's journey it is clear that her ability can be a gift and a curse.
I applaud Ahern's capability to take you through the whole spectrum of emotions and the brilliant character building she did with Alice.

Harriet and Wyn didn't really think their plan through and now they have to hide the truth from their friends. Pretending to still be in a relationship is harder than they thought. Especially when there are hidden feelings involved.

Follow their journey and fall in love with their "Happy Place". But be aware: You might need a box of tissues right beside you at all times, while reading this book.

Véritable coup de coeur!

Plein de mélancolie et d'espoir, le second roman de Valérie Perrin est d'une beauté incroyable!

Nora is done with life...in the Midnight Library she has the unique chance to try out all her different lives by undoing one regret. Which one will she choose to live hence forward?
A magical what-if novel that speaks to everyone, because we have all asked ourselves at least once: "What if"?.
Easily one of the best books I've read this year.

A captivating story filled with fantasy, high stakes and love. A human girl finds herself in a magical world where she faces many dangerous obstacles and needs to fight not only for her survival, but also for the inhabitants of Prythian. Loosely inspired by the elements of the story "The Beauty and The Beast", Sarah J. Maas has written a fantastic story which leaves the reader wanting to learn more about Feyre's journey and the characters the reader encounters throughout the story.

This book is definitely worth the hype! Although sceptical at first, unsure if it would live up to my expectations, I ended up giving a 5-star rating and even shed a tear or two at the end. Following a group of 4 college freinds as they navigate their way through life, Yanagihara lets us experience what true friendship and suffering are like. Every single page is beautifully written and encapsulating. This is a story that will stay with you forever.

This has been sitting on my "to be read" for quite a while, and I'm so glad I finally came around to it. It's a thrilling novel about jealousy, friendship and conscience.
After having stolen a manuscript from her now dead friend and having published it under her own, racially ambiguous name, June lives in a constant hunt between her own conscience and the dreaded revelation by outsiders.
It's a great example of the unreliable narrator as the reader only gets to know June's own thoughts, and she's great at justifying herself. It's a book that will keep you own your toes because you're constantly required not to forget to make your own judgement of things.

Willkommen in der Kleinstadt und im aberwitzigen Liebeschaos!
Diese Reihe hatte mich ab der ersten Seite! Einfach nur unendlich unterhaltsam, herzlich , humorvoll und natürlich voller spritziger Romantik. Die Bände sind dazu abwechslungsreich und machen Lust immer wieder zurückzukehren. Volle 100 Punkte

An extremely powerful read.

A captivating book about the messy reality of being in your twenties: great friendships, complicated relationships and crushes on unavailable people.
A true gem with chaotic relatable characters that will stay with you.
Absolutely loved it!

Qu'est-il vraiment arrivé à Sarah Leroy ? quelle est l'histoire, la vérité, derrière la disparition de la jeune fille ?
C'est Fanny, accompagnée de sa belle-fille Lilou, qui va devoir déterrer des secrets depuis bien trop longtemps enfouis afin de percer le mystère et découvrir ce qui arrivé à Sarah.
Un superbe roman sur l'amitié qui perdure.

Panayotis Pascot nous livre une introspection et des réflexions incisives et lucides qui nous frappent de plein fouet !

This first part of The Nightborn duet had me hooked from the start.With the different factions of vampires fighting for political power and the trials that will grant a wish from the goddess Nyaxia herself to the winner.
And of course the romance brewing between a human girl raised by the vampire king and a vampire from the enemy faction is absolutely captivating.
And the ending...no words.

Encore une fois, Lisa Gardner nous entraîne dans une enquête passionnante: 2 meurtres, 16ans d'écart, par la même femme. D'abord son père, puis son mari. Et le passé se révèlera être complètement différent de ce quoi on pouvait s'attendre. Thriller psychologique addictif. Décidemment excellent

Le Burundi dans les années 90. Un roman puissant

Léa a son avenir de basketteuse pro tout tracé, mais forcément, la vie s'en mêle et le drame frappe sa famille. Alors Léa sombre. Sa rencontre avec Anthony va la ramener progressivement à la vie.
Marie Vareille n'a pas son pareil pour raconter de belles histoires, et celle-ci est simplement magnifique. Un roman sur la résilience, l'amour, l'amitié, la famille. Une vraie pépite !

Seethaler beschreibt mit seiner klaren, schnörkellosen Sprache die Menschen im "Café ohne Namen" in der Wiener Leopoldstadt in den 60er Jahren. Aus der Persespektive des Wirtes Robert Simon porträtiert er die einfachen Leute mit ihren Hoffnungen und Sehnsüchten.

"La frontière entre la vie et la mort est peut-être plus trouble quîl n^y paraît..." , cette phrase résume excellemment ce nouveau roman de Franck Thilliez, dont le thème principal est: la mort.( la vie après la mort, les expériences de mort imminentes...)Pour qualifier ce livre , j'utiliserais les termes suivants: dérangeant, déroutant, destabilisant....
Cette équipe de policiers est attachante, on a réellement l'impression de les connaître personnellement à force de les retrouver dans ces romans. Et c'est pourquoi ce roman nous bouleverse.
Très talentueux.

Evelyn Hugo tells her story of fame and what it cost her. You might think that the book is really about her husbands, after all, that's what the title suggests. The truth is though, that they only play supporting roles in her eventful, colourful and sometimes dangerous life. This was such a captivating story, I'm not surprised it will be made into a movie soon.
