- Maps for the getaway : a novel / by Noblin, Annie England,author.;
When they posed for a photo at their high school graduation, they vowed they'd be friends forever, but teenage promises are so easily broken, and now, thirty years later, they're practically strangers. CiCi--stuck in a rut, married to a cheating husband; Genie--caring for her ailing father but never getting any thanks; Kate--everyone knows people who look perfect on Instagram are not. And Laurie, the most successful of them all, now tragically gone. So, to celebrate Laurie's life, three former friends in a 1962 red Lincoln Continental convertible take the road trip of their lives, encountering male strippers, a boy band that has seen better days, crazy motel rooms, adopting a so-ugly-it's-cute stray dog, and discovering that it's never too late to live the wild life.

- Real ones : a novel / by Vermette, Katherena,1977-author.;
"From the nationally bestselling author of the Strangers saga comes a heartrending story of two Métis sisters who must face their past trauma when their mother is called out as a pretendian. Lyn and her sister, June, are NDNs -- real ones. Lyn is still suffering after a break-up, but has her pottery artwork and her bubbly kid, Willow, to keep her mind, heart, and hands busy. Happily married June, a Métis Studies professor, yearns to uproot from Vancouver and move. With her husband, Sigh, and their faithful pup, June decides to buy a house in the last place on earth she'd imagine she'd end up: back home in Winnipeg. Close to Lyn, her dad, little sister Yoyo, Grandma Genie -- close to family. But then into Lyn and June's busy lives a bomb drops: their estranged and very white mother, Renee, is called out as a "pretendian." Under the name (get this) Raven Bearclaw, Renee had recently begun to top the charts in the Canadian painting scene for having a wholly new take on the Woodlands tradition, winning awards and recognition for her fraudulent work. The news is quickly picked up by the media and sparks an enraged online backlash. As the sisters are pulled into the painful tangle of lies their mother has told and the hurt she has caused, searing memories from their unresolved childhood trauma, which still manages to spill into their well curated adult worlds, come rippling to the surface. With the same signature wit and heart on display in The Break, The Strangers, and The Circle, and in prose so powerful it could strike a match, real ones offers us a heartbreaking and ultimately hopeful story that runs parallel with the long-fought, hard-won battles of Métis people to regain ownership of their identity and the right to say who is and isn't Métis."--

- Random Road : introducing Geneva Chase / by Kies, Thomas,author.;
"It's a crime scene worthy of Hieronymus Bosch, so shocking and so senseless it challenges the local law and intrigues veteran reporter Geneva Chase whose career may be dying alongside that of her small town newspaper. The Sheffield Post headline shouts, "Cops Call Murder Scene Slaughterhouse." On the scene, Genie spurs the Deputy Police Chief to tell her quietly, "Six bodies ... all nude ... hacked to pieces." Even tough Geneva shivers. How could such a slaughter happen on Connecticut's moneyed Gold Coast? To privileged couples inside a historic 1898 Queen Anne mansion on the shoreline of Long Island Sound? Where is the protection afforded by the gated community and the security technology in place? For Geneva, battling alcoholism and bad choices, writing this story is the last chance to redeem herself. She's lost every other major news job she's had. Working at her hometown newspaper is the end of the line - there will be nowhere else to go. But ink still flows thick in her veins. Her story on Sheffield's unlikely killing field is the Post's lead, soon picked up by metro papers, and she keeps it there, exposing the turbulence beneath the rich and entitleds' secrets, their ability to buy off embarrassments. She's also tracking community connections, watching a hit-and-run case disappear through a large donation, interviewing dangerous suspects, visiting a swingers' club, joining cops for a burglary bust, and taking a guided tour to spot history's underwater ghost. All this despite the distractions of the married man she can't quite ditch and the sweet-if-shaky love affair she starts with an old high school sweetheart. Can she keep her drinking under control and do her job well enough to keep from getting fired, finish the story, not further screw up her life? And not get killed? Thomas Kies' gripping first novel with its corkscrew of a plot, asks, "Do things happen for a reason, or is everything random?""--Page [4] of cover.

Alexis refuse de dormir dans son lit. Il prend son serpent-long-long, sa doudou et il s'installe sur la moquette qui se métamorphose en langue du mauvais génie.
