Most of these are in Simon and Klara’s parts which you can pretty much skip as the important parts are mentioned in the other parts.reya145's review

I found the tone indulgently over reflective. The steam of consciousness narration that split into tangets wasn't for me.
It's strongest point, in my opinion, was the dialogue between family members and those relationships. It struck me as very familiar and natural. Complicated and sincere.
