French Friday (36)

French Friday is a weekly meme hosted here. Each week, I write about bookish things happening in France, share French book covers, titles' translations and more...

 

Hello dear French Fridayers!

 

Before starting this French Friday, I shall remind you that I'm looking for guest posts for my French Fridays! If you're intrigued and/or interested, everything's explained over there.

 

 

Now, let's get back to business wiiiith... French covers!

 

 

Solace of the Road by Siobhan Dowd

French Title: Où Vas-tu, Sunshine ? (Where Are You Going, Sunshine?)

 

 

The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants by Ann Brashares
French Title: Quatre Filles et un Jean (Four Girls and One Pair of Jeans)

 

 Wishing For Tomorrow by Hilary McKay
French Title: Les Petites Pensionnaires (The Little Boarders)

 

My thoughts on the covers:

Solace of the Road

I Definitely like the original one better. I love the colors and basically the whole picture. And shall I remind you that I'm not a fan of covers with faces on it?! Plus, what is that title's translation? Why?

 

The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants

I like the French cover better. I'm not fond of the font they used on the original cover, and the pair of jeans are just too.. simple? I think the French cover has more peps, with the colors and all.

 

Wishing For Tomorrow

Again, I must say that I like the French cover better. It's more simple, with less things to look at. And I love the tree. :) It's funny how they used the same girl but not the same place.

 

Now, What do YOU think?
