This one really fell flat for me.
The plot was a cut and past of the previous books in the series with only a slight variation in the exact location of where things went down. The characters have had no growth throughout the series and it‘s made extremely clear in this one. I wouldn‘t continue and read the last book in this series but as I own it and Specials was supposed to be the last in the series I do plan to read on and see what Extras adds.
Listening to this one today! 🎧 ❤️
Finished this one and felt a little “preachy” to me 🤷🏻♀️

A good dive back into this series. It‘s interesting how much of this is still relevant.
I think Netflix did a pretty good job overall of bringing this to screen.
Happy Saturday!! I‘m currently listening to the first two and reading the physical copy of Ashes!

I kinda love his take.
This was pretty weird. Now, don't get me wrong - I love a bit of weird, me. But this went on way too long & became a little incoherent. I loved the fairy tale parallels, but again, the metaphors & references got a little repetitive & lost some of their impact. It had things to say about mother/daughter relationships, society's beauty ideals, vanity/self-image, grief - all heavyweight issues - but drew vague conclusions.
Even though not my favorite book by Nothomb, it's still a typical Amelie Nothomb book and therefore worth reading (for me). Once again she digs into the topic of beauty. Epiphane is heavily deformed and therefore called ugly. But he makes it work for him. But lives a beautiful soul in an ugly body? Or is he just as superficial as we all are? A perfidious little piece written by the master herself.
