Un roman graphique siiiii nostalgique pour moi! C’était beau de retrouver Aurélie. Les illustrations était en plus magnifiques et représentaient exactement ce comment je m’imaginais toutes ses péripéties lorsque j’étais jeune.
Je ne comprenais toutefois pas pourquoi on y retrouvait déjà Tommy. Peut-être que ma mémoire me fait défaut, mais je croyais qu’il n’arrivait que dans le tome 3. Toutefois, je crois avoir compris que le roman graphique est adapté un peu différemment des romans initiaux. Mais même si l’histoire est un peu twisté, j’ai lu le tout le grand sourire aux lèvres. Je feelais comme si je retrouvais une amie de longue date.
Aurélie c’est vraiment la OG "on a discovery journey main character". La moi de 11 ans est heureuse et celle de 22 va aller acheter tous les autres tomes juste parce que.
India Desjardins et Aurélie Laflamme ont été celles qui m’ont fait adorer la lecture en premier quand j’étais toute petite et maintenant qu’elle m’ont fait lire mon premier roman graphique, peut-être seront-elles celles qui me font aimer ce genre de livre.

Amy is a normal teenager with normal teenager problems from best friend drama, and hating boys to falling in love. I enjoyed the actual diary clips the most. I was hoping for more "lessons" but it is just what the title says it is... a diary of a teenage girl. I would definitely read the continuation of the story.

Based on the novels and translated from French. This is the first in a series.
Amy is in middle school. Her dad died a few years ago from a pulmonary embolism; her mom is just starting to date again. Amy is dealing with typical middle school issues like fights with best friends and crushes, doing well (or not) at school, etc.
I liked the mostly realistic graphic style with just a touch of cartoon-y-ness. There was one panel in a pet store where the kittens all got adopted and the mama cat was sad and crying that made me really sad, too. I think middle school students will relate well to Amy and her issues. It was a good story but nothing extraordinary.

Besides the dated references, this was a cute book. Amy has normal problems, a boy-crazy best friend, and a mom starting to date again. Gold star for the boyfriend actually being understanding the kiss was against Amy’s will. Another gold star for being realistic in that Nate broke up with her. I don’t think any high school boy’s ego could take that. Outside of that weird, uncomfortable hamster rape joke, an all right book for middle schoolers.
