Hey
Aujourd’hui je vais te parler de ces livres à paraître pendant les mois d’avril, mai et juin qui me donnent très envie, voire que j’ai déjà précommandé. Ce sont des livres anglophones (comme toujours) et je ne vais pas mettre le synopsis de tous ces livres sinon on va y rester des heures !
Avril

Chosen Ones, as the teens were known, gave everything they had to defeat him. »

He’s wrong.«
