Je l'ai lu il y a quelques années et j'en avais très peu de souvenirs, sinon que j'avais beaucoup aimé. C'est toujours le cas après cette relecture, je pense que ce qui me plaît le plus est l'époque où l'intrigue se déroule. C'est un roman facile à lire, super pour se divertir simplement.

I was expecting more, to be honest. I can't exactly say that I'm disappointed but my expectations were higher haha.

The second book for me announced more action in this one than what in fact happens, and what we get mainly occurs in the last tier. I also feel like the book could have been shorter, and at the same time I'm not completely satisfied with the ending
