Brownie Patch Placement Cookie

Sooner or later

"Blow Dry" is the new novel by Marie-Aude Murail, which also has "Simple" is written.
The text on the back of the book describes very well the atmosphere and action:

"I do not care," says Louis.
His grandmother has just proposed to him to do his internship at the Salon Marielou. In a hairdresser!
"Over my dead body," said Louis' father.
Full uncool, "said Louis' friends.
"I do not care," says Louis.
begins But as he is, he does not care at one time nothing more. He wants to live his own life. Even against the will of his father. Whether Marielou can help him?

If the text. Initially, Louis still "no matter to me" in his mood. But soon he wants to live independent and above all, unlike his father, who is snobmäßig him and throws a lot of prejudice around. In the course of the book, it is also becoming more violent clashes of the two. But in the end, of course, everything is better (though not completely perfect).

Where To Find Free Kates Playground

Because Samstach is ...

this book I have read in a train journey, which lasted 3 hours longer than planned. But this has not diminished the quality of the book. Because "Because Saturday is" by Frank Goosen is super funny. As a football fan you can in many situations, will put even purely - it usually makes more fun.

Frank Goosen told in his football stories of how he experienced stadium courses or discussion with the neighbors to the number one in the Ruhr (from his point of view of Vfl Bochum). The chapters are always telling other stories, but have yet a context. There are, for example, game-diaries of the 2006 World Cup and Euro 2008.

The book is for all football lovers, who can also look at Stadionvorkommnisse with humor a must.

summer, sun, beach, mountains - Quick Read

The summer holidays are over, school starts again. Therefore, the time of the endless reading on the beach of the Baltic Sea or in the evening is over after a hike in the Alps. As my holiday but has made just as I shall now on preparing the books I've read.
Sooooo, let's go with "The Flying Trautmann" by Miriam Toews

The book goes to Hattie, her niece Thebes and her nephew Logan. Hattie, in Paris lives, get one night a phone call from Thebes, which now asks Hattie to come. For Min, Thebes mother and sister, Hattie, is depressed and her condition has deteriorated to the point that they need treatment. But now the father of two children moved out long ago. Hattie decides now to go to America and with her 11-year-old niece, who has matted hair purple and, like a hip hop artist speaks, and her 15-year-old nephew Logan, who made the grade provisional driving license and strong in puberty (Thebes calls it "revolutionary"), to make their way to seek the father who has settled somewhere near the border with Mexico. The three go with her broken Los van, across America.


The book is really funny, the dialogue while driving to serene moments, but it's also sad and makes you think, because on the trip noted each of the three how much he or she is affected by the disease by Min but failed to make allegations.
The book is still more funny than sad, and therefore a great book for a long train ride or a nice evening beach (about 250 pages).
