I've been in the mood for a lot of quick short books, and I just happened to find this. I felt very nostalgic reading this, mostly because my childhood was a little similar to this. I liked it!

Beautifully wrought. Not a wasted word. Makes the reader feel intensely for the young protagonist. Just enough is hinted at about the world around her so the reader is actively engaged in constructing the story. I found myself holding my breath.

Tämä pieni kirja osuu sydämeen ja herättää tunteita. Miten Claire Keegan onnistuukin luomaan vain 83 sivulla näin kauniin ja tunnelmallisen tarinan.
Nopealukuinen tarina vie mukanaan heti ensimmäisestä sivusta asti. Iso suositus Kasvatille.

Mr. Kinsella reminded me so much of Matthew Cuthbert. ❤️ I am amazed at how much Claire Keegan can do in so few pages. I just want more and more and more.
