Going into their last year of middle school, Valentine and her friends are at that defining time of their lives when new experiences are coming thick and fast. They've got their finals just around the corner, but that doesn't stop them from bunking classes and flirting with guys (even if, in Valentine's case, they're not the guys she actually wants to flirt with... the gorgeous Felix is as aloof as ever). Valentine struggles to find her feet in this emotional whirlwind.

Valentine is a secondary-school student like many others. Her daily life is filled with all the upheavals and self-questioning of adolescence. Self-conscious, she tries to assert herself within a group in which she is "the shy one". She spends most of her time with her girlfriends, at school or at parties on the weekend. She also tries desperately to get the attention of Felix, the boy she's in love with - and who has no idea she exists. To make things worse, he's in the "rival" class to her own... Little by little, this young woman learns to express herself and find her place in the cruel and treacherous world of adolescence, from MP3 players and Japanese mangas, to her first parties and her first whiskey and Coke.

In the third volume of the series, Valentine enters into her first year of high school. Bad news! The group of four girls is split up into different classes. At first it looks like Valentine's the unlucky one -- the kids in her class are decidedly uncool. But once she gets to know them a little better, she starts to see that maybe she was wrong to judge so quickly.

In Book 4, Valentine finishes her first year of high school. As she does, she becomes more and more sure of herself. Her views of society take a turn for the critical, and she develops a greater willingness to branch out from her tight-knit group of friends. This new independent spirit motivates her to begin publishing a fanzine with Yamina. Meanwhile, Juliette and Melvin prepare for a break-dancing competition. And on the boy front, things are as complicated as ever: Felix is still just a "good friend," and Baptiste is flirting up a storm...
-
The sixth and final chapter of Vanyda's "Valentine," taking us through to the end of adolescence. After going through moments of loneliness and self-doubt, Valentine is finally able to just be herself. She's grown up, and is set on running her own life from now on, choosing her friends and her hobbies, following her own political ideas, and even deciding what kind of relationship to have with her family. Valentine has certainly matured-but the return of Charles might also have something to do with her entering adulthood!
-
Valentine is in her second year of high school and once more in a class where she doesn't know anyone. But that won't stop her from living her life: the manga club, her hip-hop group, and her lunch breaks give her a chance to catch up with her friends. That is, when Yamina isn't hanging out with her new boyfriend! Valentine will soon be 17 years old, but she still blushes as much as ever when she sees her crushes coming her way. If only she could think of something to say to Félix, beyond asking him if he'd like a glass of water...

Mia's back! But her gang of friends is changing. Mia's parents sent her to a private school this year to bring her grades up, so her only chance to see her old friends Gauthier, Louka, and Zouzou is playing video games with them after school. There's a new tenant at Wilfried's place, a geek who has an interesting relationship with oven mitts. This year also brings a new challenge for Mia: a fighting-game tournament at the local video game store, with a mysterious new opponent. And there's still that haunted house around the corner...
-
Mia, Gauthier, Louka and Zouzou are inseparable. Like most teenagers, they'd much rather be playing video games or making music than doing their homework. Mia, the only girl in the group, doesn't really seem to click with the other girls in her class. But as they grow up, her tight-knit friendship group will become more and more complicated as girl-boy relationships start to get interesting...

Mia and her friends are in high school now, which means more freedom, more extracurriculars, more allowance, and even more friends! This year, Mia clandestinely attends the film club of the high school next door. She's inspired by the teacher and the club's top-notch equipment to cast her friends in some short films in between their video game sessions. Gauthier, Zouzou, and Louka are all there, of course, and so are Phoenix and the geek. There are even some new faces, which might bring some new romances for some of the friends...
