Explanation During Books Le premier jour (Le Premier Jour #1)
I read through the reviews for book every time before I add my own review. I saw a lot of negative reviews for this book and also many people rated it with one star.Well, I think, it is not the book that deserves only one star. Just because the novel is easy to read and understand. Because it took me to the world's different places. While reading this book, I had a phone call, my friend asked me "Where are you?" and I answered "I'm in Paris". Surely I wasn't, it's just I had so vivid feelings while reading, so realistic imagination that I thought I was in every place mentioned in the book.
But it is not only the mystery and adventures that makes this book adorable, it is also the love story if main characters. I was finishing this book on my way home in the train and it made me cry in the end. Seriously, I even didn't understand how that happened, it's just the language is so great, the words are chosen so correctly to describe things that I couldn't stay unemotional. So I give to this book all five stars.

Marc Levy revives Jules Verne style of making the adventure to be scientifically educational and informative, though Verne was targeting kids while Levy's audience are adults. Well, ... nowadays the majority of adults are unfortunately more scientifically ignorant than were kids in the times of Jules Verne.I also sense that Levy added to this novel (by introducing Walter as a character) some elements of Conan Doyle's trick of having Sherlock Holmes vs Dr Watson (smart "cop" /stupid "cop")It's 4 stars because the book is in french but the story was worth spending 4 days into it I was so busy while reading this book but I couldn't stop specially because I'm in love with Walter and how funny he is. Wait why am I writing my review in English ? Well I don't know but here is what I know that after reading it I got a wet bed (of tears of course) The end Oh god the end I know it's Marc's way to end all the good stories but I hoped that this one is an exception. Oh and between I feel
I think this book is a mystery of sorts, a romantic mystery, a genre that I think fits very well with Levy's writing style. What I love about Levy's novels is the fact that each of them has a lesson.

the first half of this thriller was easy to love: it has reach characters, witty humour and the plot that draws you in slowly but inresistibly.and than the second half spoils it all and just kills the pleasure with every cliché you can think of... by the end i hated the author so much i wanted to burn the book... too bad i was listening to an audio version =)
An excellent book for whom searching adventure, chase, shivers and tears, all of this with a backdrop of discovering the origin of the humanity and the universe.
Rarely have I felt so ambivalent upon finishing a book. On the plus side, I found the idea of a star map dating back 400 million years that was broken up with the individual pieces hidden at remote locations to be both original and intriguing. However, I had a hard time getting lost in the story, primarily because it seemed to be so loosely written - at times irritatingly repetitive. It was only at the end that I really clued into the fact that there's a page labelled "First Notebook" sandwiched
