The first third was rather sagging, so that I couldn’t really see why the book is a bestseller. In the last third however I had tears in my eyes on almost every page 😅 

I’ve read that this book comes of as a parable in another review, which I’ve got to agree with. Some of the problems mentioned were solved in a “childish” or “superficial” way or only mentioned briefly, but all in all this is warm little novel that manages to open one’s heart a little wider.
