BookHaul #4

Hey!
J’espère que vous passez une belle semaine!

Aujourd’hui, petit BookHaul avec une majorité écrasante de livre en anglais.
En ce moment je suis prise d’une envie de lecture en VO alors j’ai un peu craqué…
Je vous ferez un article bientôt avec les livres que j’ai déjà lu en anglais et j’en profiterez pour vous donner mon avis sur leur niveau de langue.

  • Broken – Nicola Haken

« When Theodore Davenport decides to switch his mundane job for a career, he walks into Holden House Publishing with enthusiasm and determination to succeed. As he settles into his new role, makes new friends, and dreams of making it to the top, everything is going to plan.

Until he meets James Holden, CEO of Holden House.

James Holden hasn’t been able to stop thinking about his encounter with the timid man he met in a club bathroom last week, and when he discovers the one haunting his dreams is an employee, he can’t seem to stop himself from pursuing him.

Just a little fun – that’s what James tells himself. He can’t afford to care for someone who can never reciprocate, not once they find out who he really is. James believes nobody deserves the burden of being attached to him. He’s a complicated man.

Damaged. Difficult. Demanding.

Broken.

Is Theodore strong enough to confront James’ demons? More importantly, is James?« 

  • Red Rising – #1 – Pierce Brown

« The Earth is dying. Darrow is a Red, a miner in the interior of Mars. His mission is to extract enough precious elements to one day tame the surface of the planet and allow humans to live on it. The Reds are humanity’s last hope.

Or so it appears, until the day Darrow discovers it’s all al lie. That Mars has been habitable – and inhabited – for generations, by a class of people calling themselves the Golds. A class of people who look down on Darrow and his fellows as slave labour, to be exploited and worked to death without a second thought.

Until the day that Darrow, with the help of a mysterious group of rebels, disguises himself as a Gold and infiltrates their command school, intent on taking down his oppressors from the inside. But the command school is a battlefield – and Darrow isn’t the only student with an agenda.« 

  • Looking for Alaska – John Green

« Alaska Young. Gorgeous, clever, funny, sexy, screwed up – and utterly fascinating. Miles Halter could not be more in love with her. But when tragedy strikes, Miles discovers the value and the pain of living and loving unconditionally.« 

  • Undone – Cat Clarke

« Jem Halliday is in love with her gay best friend. Not exactly ideal, but she’s learning to live with it.
Then the unspeakable happens. Kai is outed online … and he kills himself.
Jem knows nothing she can say or do will bring him back. But she wants to know who was responsible. And she wants to take them down.« 

  • Marked Men : Rule – #1 – Jay Crownover (Je voulais le prendre en anglais mais la couverture VO ne me plaisait pas…)

« Depuis toujours, Shaw est secrètement amoureuse de Rule.
Or, tout les oppose : de nature rebelle et fêtards, tatoueur et tatoué, il n’a rien à voir avec la jeune femme classique, sérieuse et concentrée sur ses études.
Rule ne voit en elle qu’une fille à papa et, surtout, la petite amie de son défunt frère…
Mais parfois, il suffit d’une jupe courte et de quelques cocktails pour que le regard que l’on porte sur quelqu’un change!
Entre leurs traumatismes, les mauvaises habitudes de Rule, l’emploi du temps surchargé de Shaw et son ex qui la harcèle, parviendront-ils à comprendre ce qui les lie?« 

Je vous souhaite une belle journée!
A bientôt! ❤
