About the author:
I am Seb, and I am a 15 year old boy. I watched Les Amitiés Particulières (This Special Friendship) and it gave me pain, so much and I just wanna repay them the pain😁 just kidding. As I watched the movie, I thought it's very good, better than good actually. It's the only movie that made me ugly cry. I got addicted to it and so I wrote a sequel of how I think the story would go and continue. This book is the first book I wrote, and it is still on going. This is my first time writing a story and I have no experience as I'm still learning in this kind of literature but you might wanna give it a try. Give it a try!
About the book:
I don't want this book to be super long or as long as some known novels, well, it's not yet finished but yeah, that's my goal. It's still my first time so I'm still trying things. I also made this book to sound not too formal so everyone could relate and be engaged in the story like the casual new stories published today. I didn't want to add much of a difficult English words so that everyone would understand it easily, but don't worry, I added some flavor. I know that the story is an autobiography of the late author, Roger Peyrefitte. I did this book to share what I think would happen next to Georges, and just Georges himself, the character. Everything is made up of my imagination. I watched the movie and I read the book, just some parts. The intro, the ending and some scenes. I haven't read it all yet but I know how it goes, I skipped some parts to know and read the necessaries for my book. It is in English, universal language and because of course, I cannot speak in French. If someone's willing to teach me, why not?😁 So yeah, there are some French words in it and I just used Google Translate, so sorry if I did some mistakes. The pictures you'll see came from Google and I edited them on PicsArt so, credits to the original owner. Thanks to them. The goal of the cover of this book is to make it look old and retro, I'm not sure if I did it right, I'm not even an editor but you judge hehe, thanks. This book is a hybrid of the movie and novel. There are some parts changed when they adapted the novel to cinematography. If you haven't read the book yet, you can still read this because it's much more connected to the movie.
I will also show how grief affects one's life and one's entirety. Grief is a serious topic and I have experienced it. The scenes in this book might and might not experienced by the author.

(I advise you to watch the film or read the book, atleast the last part before reading this to set the vibe and to remain the pain hehe)
