Description:
They are brothers and sisters. For several hours, they are orphans. They swore they did not separate them.
ago Morlevent Simeon, 14. Skinny. Brown eyes. Distinguishing feature: gifted, is preparing his tray.
Morlevent Morgan, 8. Brown eyes. Ears very detached. First class, very close to his brother. Distinguishing characteristics: adults all the time forget it exists.
Morlevent Venice, 5 years. Blue eyes, blond hair, beautiful. The little girl that everyone dreams of having. Distinguishing feature: a livelihood for torrid romance with her Barbie.
They did not want to entrust their fate to the first social worker visit. Their goal is to leave the home where they were located and to find a family.
At this time, two people might want to adopt them. For good reason. But also for bad. One is not very nice, the other is irresponsible, and ... Ah, yes! these two people hate each other.
My opinion:
This book is a real gem! I just loved it. The pen of Marie-Aude Murail, I discovered thanks to Oh, Boy! is really nice.
The story is touching; moving, the author addresses several sensitive issues such as cancer, homosexuality, suicide, or infertility with style and certainly funny without ever falling into the naive or extremely serious.
The characters are all very endearing. Whether the small Venice 5 years and outspoken or Bart's half-brother of the siblings, homosexual, so funny and totally irresponsible. And what about Simon, his intelligence and his incomparable strength?
This is a book that makes you think and leave you wondering. It gets a good lesson in life and we want more. It goes from laughter to tears and can not stop turn the pages. Oh and I loved chapter 13.
To conclude, I recommend it a hundred times, and I intend to continue to play Marie-Aude Murail!
