Five books, five opportunities to discover new worlds.
Irem’s recommendation: Pride and Prejudice
“What I really love about Pride and Prejudice is the story and the relationship between the characters, which gradually develops throughout the novel. I also really enjoy the film adaptation, which makes you want to discover or rediscover the book. And an added bonus: it can be read in both French and English!”
Caro’s recommendation: Heartstopper
“This series of graphic novels has particularly touched me because it gently explores adolescence, love, friendship, questions of sexual orientation and identity, as well as topics such as mental health and eating disorders, which are still taboo subjects today.”
Jérémy’s recommendation: The Handmaid’s Tale
“What I really enjoyed about this book is the way it encourages readers to reflect on our current society and wonder whether such a situation could happen in the country we live in. Margaret Atwood’s work is both powerful and terrifying, especially when you consider that something like this could happen to us.”
Lilou’s recommendation: The Truth About the Harry Quebert Affair
“What I really loved about this book is that even when you think you’ve figured out what’s going on, something always happens that turns everything upside down and makes you question everything again. It’s a book that immerses you completely in its world and that you’ll never get tired of reading.”
Sarah’s recommendation: I Don’t Want To Settle
“Available exclusively in English, I Don’t Want to Settle is a collection of poetry that explores grief, love, and life, with all the imperfections of youth.What I really loved about this collection was the rhythm and the choice of words. As you read, you’re swept away.”
