Les immortelles by Makenzy Orcel, Makenzy Orcel
4.0
Les immortelles. Histoire des putes. Histoire d’une Haïti déchirée entre le fanatisme et la merde. Le tremblement, avec ses secousses, fourre tout ensemble. Au final, une tuerie de femmes, d’enfants déjà à terre…
Treize nouvelles vaudou by Gary Victor
3.0
La deuxième partie était bien meilleure que la première. Les nouvelles les plus mémorables étaient « Krik… Krik… Krik.. », « Le mouton », « Maléfices égarés » et « La langue ».

Push by Sapphire
5.0
This book was crazy hilarious AND crazy heart breaking
MAJOR trigger warnings are in order…
• domestic violence, battery, child abuse, incest, homophobia, lesbophobia,
ALL kinds of slurs, rape, fat-phobia, ableism, child pregnancy, gaslighting, colourism, suicidal thoughts, suicidal ideation, panic attacks, racism, misogyny, bullying, excrements, body shaming, body dysmorphia, dissociation, eating disorder, depression, self-harm, racism
Don’t get fooled, those are not even listed in a particular order; it’s some CRAZY shit page after page (and even NEW shit right at the end).
BUUUT this is reality for a looooot if not MOST people; don’t let your sheltered childhood make you believe any different. If any of the above are things you’ve had the privilege to never experience first-hand PLEASE read this book; if these are things you know too well, consider reading this book (but DO respect your limits, amiga!)
It’s also weirdly inspiring so yeah: a mix of funny bittersweet and disturbing :)
NB: My conception of “funny” = out of pocket statements!

Night by Elie Wiesel
5.0
A clear 5/5: First-hand account of life in an extermination camp during the Holocaust. The book doesn’t try to be philosophical or even poetic yet each line is able to reveal the state of shock and emptiness (death) which seized Wiesel when he was only 14…
Words whose meanings have been changed for me
bread, soup, bed, cold, tears, father, home, hungry, spoon, humanity, death
Do you know what happened? Beyond the showers? Beyond the pictures? Beyond the war? I thought I did but clearly didn’t and maybe the “why” is more important than the fact so why?
