riveting and mesmerizing
En bok som fångade mig totalt. Kan ha att göra med att man redan vet om att de två huvudpersonerna kommer att träffas och därmed så kommer det hända hemska saker. Men även om språket som författaren använder sig av för att berätta historien om två barn och deras tankar och känslor. Kan inte säga att den höll rakt igenom, men trots allt mycket läsvärd.
