I really liked this book. The only thing I had a problem with was the translation, it was very cringy. Didn’t quite capture the vibe of the 80’s, just sounded like a weird boomer trying to describe things in a “cool” way, but Norwegian doesn’t sound cool, especially not in this context.

tjr never dissapoints
i love how all 4 characters evelyn, daisy, carrie and nina are so so different from each other, i loved this series, just shows how versatile women lead characters can be even within the same realm of storylines
