Li com a constante sensação de estar caminhando na ponta dos pés, sempre alerta, na beira dos abismos da vida de mãos dadas com a menina Cláudia: Olhando para baixo observando os acontecimentos com curiosidade, encantamento e a euforia do imaginário da queda livre, mas ao mesmo tempo com medo do fim.

Waffling between 3.75 and 4 because I think it was well written and interesting, I guess I just wanted more - the front cover describes the book as "powerful and unsettling" so I wanted to actually feel unsettled. It's an interesting enough family drama, but I would only call it unsettling for the faint of heart or people who have trauma around

parental depression or suicide.

Haunting and so gorgeous, the child’s point of view was masterful. I think I got kinda lost by the last third of the book, but otherwise I loved it.

Read this in one sitting - a deeply intimate and lovely insight into a family through a child's eyes. Loved this. Full review soon.
