Bonjour Tristesse, by Françoise Sagan

emotional funny reflective medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Character
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.5

Color me impressed to know that Sagan wrote this at such a young age. I found myself smirking already at the first few pages when the narrator reflects on how unattractive people make her uncomfortable. It's a short and quick read with a lot ideas to digest.
