Vraie note : 4,5 ⭐️
J'ai entendu que du bien sur cette BD, et franchement je comprend pourquoi. Même si ce premier tome est introductif, il nous met quand même assez rapidement dans l'ambiance et nous permet de comprendre certains aspect du trouble dissociatif de l'identité. Même si ce n'est pas encore détaillé en profondeur, un fil conducteur commence à ce mettre en place et j'ai trouvé ça vraiment intéressant. De plus, hormis les dessins d'une beauté incroyable, je trouve ça bien de traité un sujet aussi complexe à travers une bd destiné à la jeunesse. Je m'y connais pas trop sur les TDI et j'espère en apprendre un peu plus grâce à cette trilogie. J'ai donc très très hâte de pouvoir me plonger dans le tome 2

Kid Toussaint crea una novela gráfica sobre una adolescente con Trastorno de Identidad Disociativo. Ella es la chica nueva en el instituto y todo va de maravilla hasta que su comportamiento es bastante confuso y contradictorio para sus compañeres. En muy poquitas páginas (y con unas ilustraciones bellísimas) se tratan temas como la amistad, la familia, la salud mental, el paso de la adolescencia a la edad adulta... Al final hay un giro argumental que deja la historia interrumpida (para seguirlo en el siguiente tomo) que a mí, sinceramente, me ha pillado desprevenida. Me hubiera gustado que fuese algo más largo para poder conocer mejor a los personajes, pero aún así tengo muchas ganas de seguir leyendo esta historia.

"À quand la suite ???" voilà la première pensée qui m'est venue après avoir tourné la dernière page de cet album haut en couleur.
Une magnifique BD qui m'a fait de l'œil dès ma première rencontre avec elle. Les graphismes sont extraordinaires, le recours aux couleurs de cheveux et à un dessin très expressif permettent de différencier aisément chacune des personnalités de Elle.
Tout en y mêlant de l'humour, des thèmes graves sont abordés avec finesse comme la souffrance psychique et surtout un personnage aux personnalités multiples. Créer une BD jeunesse à partir de ce sujet est fascinant, et particulièrement intéressant à traiter avec le point de vue d'adolescent, période de quête de soi et de montagnes russes émotionnelles.
C'est un très bon premier tome qui nous met en appétit et promet de la qualité dans la suite de ce récit, tout en créant un véritable suspense.
Je recommande à 1000%.

I received this graphic novel from Netgalley in exchange of an honest review.
A girl, many personalities… but are they really personalities? Or is Elle something more?
When I got the mail from Europe Comics I knew I had to try out this book, the cover certainly made me curious. We see a girl, but with many others who look like her behind her.
Meet Elle, a girl who is new at a school. She quickly makes friends with a group of people and they have a great time together… but then stress happens and we see how that changes Elle and we also see the cover come to play. Elle keeps changing much to the confusion of her friends, and I could definitely understand that. I mean one moment you have a sweet caring friend, the next a shy one who faints when standing in front of the class, the next you get a rude and mean friend. I could imagine their confusion, their worry. And at first I was worried that they may just leave her. Or abandon her… but no. One of the friendgroup, the one Elle is closed with, decides to help her out. Decide to hunt the truth.
And boy oh boy, the truth… In this one we get glimpses of it. We find out a few things, but not enough to satisfy me so I do hope that the next volume comes out soon because I definitely need to know what is up. What or who is the blue-haired Elle? What is Elle, is maybe the better question. And why are her parents lying? What are they hiding from Elle?
I love that we as the reader (and of course Elle) know when the personalities flip by the change in hair-colour. Of course, we also see the change in the attitude, but I have to say the hair colour change was the most effective for me as it just struck out so much. It was instant. BOOM, colour change. When she is in a meaner mode she is blonde. When shy is has brown hair. When green haired she is rational and protective. There is also the joker who has purple hair. And then there is Elle herself, pink-haired and a sweet and normal girl. I really loved seeing the switches/changes happen. She could go from one to another in just mere seconds.
Through the story we see there is another girl hiding in Elle, one that cannot be released just yet, and I am very worried what she is. She has blue hair and glows. I wonder what Elle she is and how dangerous and powerful she is. Going by the hints we get… I say we shouldn’t let her out.
The art is just the best. I just love the style, the colours, and the character designs.
I would highly recommend this book to all. This one will suck you into the story. Fantastic characters. Tons of mystery. And wonderful art.

I’m hooked already! I loved this mental health story and how it shows that a good support system can make a world of difference to someone dealing with mental health issues. I can’t wait to remember more of Elle’s journey.
