I discovered the author during my last holidays in France: my friend AL was reading one of her books (Fred Vargas is a woman -- I only just discovered that while reading the Wikipedia article) and told me she had a great writing style and that the plots were really good.After reading it (borrowed from the library, no surprise here), I confirm. The characters have a good humor and an interesting history, independently from the plot, which was really good nonetheless. I loved the dialogs with and about the toad. A lot of the dialogs just sound so right and witty, I laughed out loud several times. Also a page turner.

J'ai lu "L'homme aux cercles bleus" d'elle, c'était tellement bien que j'ai mis une partie d'une nuit pour le lire :D j'adore le personnage d'Adamsberg...
He coucou :)
Oui, j'ai une trop mauvaise mémoire de ce que je lis, j'espère que j'arriverai mieux à me souvenir des titres, auteurs et contenus grâce à ce blog avec les images de couverture ;)
Je connais pas encore l'homme aux cercles bleus, mais je regarderai si je le trouve la prochaine fois que j'irai à la bibli :)
