can‘t believe it was my final read for #12Littens12Books! I really enjoyed reading it because the 18 snippets into rich white french bourgeoisie were so well written you got swept along by the skill alone. This is obviously destined to be adapted to screen. Also: do not read if you‘re planning on getting married soon. Ending up as unhappy, frustrated, and unlikeable as ANY of these 18 characters would be my biggest fear for silver- and old age!

Today (not today but.. ) is #NewYear_NewYou day. For #SocialDistancingMay and #SocialDistancingParty

I see this little gem every day when on my way to work. Always brings a smile to my face.

I didn‘t like the story, but did enjoy the read, does that make any sense? There‘s a certain acceptance of affairs in there that just annoyed me, but there‘s also a sense of the absurdity of life in there that I really liked. I mean that in the sense that everyone has their own worries, worries that seem absurd to others. And there‘s so little understanding for each other, even though we‘re kinda all in the same boat...

Snippets of ordinary lives, brilliantly observed. Multiple viewpoints. Interconnected short stories - character sketches, mostly dialogue, form a multi-generational snapshot of modern relationships and attitudes in France. Lively. Loved it. #translation #diversebooks

My eyes close. This thriller is not thrilling. I remove my glasses and switch off the light.

I find it appalling that the dead have no power. I disapprove of this radical division of our worlds.

Who can wander up and down these fluorescent rows, past this plethora of packaging, without yielding to discouragement?

RealLifeReading Great quote! 8y
Lindy @RealLifeReading Thanks! Love Yasmina Reza's style: each chapter is a different character. 8y
