Totálně devastatujíicí. Byly ve mne snad všechny emoce, od smutku, touhy, po radost, naději. Vnímala jsem, že hodně straním Clee, ať udelala cokoliv, vždy jsem si to zvládla nějak odůvodnit, ospravedlnit. Proste jsem za ni v duchu bojovala. Zároveň jsem ale byla neustále hrozně naštvaná na Franka a neskutečně mě taky rozcilovala Eleanor, i když vím, že to měla těžké. To vše, co se ji dělo a její životní příběh…proste asi jako každý z nás. Každý má nějaký příběh a není to o tom, porovnávat, kdo je na tom hůř a soutěžit a “horší rozdané karty”, ale možná si uvědomit, že to nemám sama za potřebí a můžu být sama sobě oporou a nemusím se snažit o uznání ostatních. Jenže tam ještě mentálně nejsem…je to jako bych to věděla, ze to chci, že mě to snad jednou čeká, ale proste mi není dovolenou do této úrovně ještě vstoupit. Jako bych si sama ještě musela něco odžít, dovolit, opustit. 
Chtěla bych si to přečíst za 20 let. A zajímalo by mě, jestli by se mé vnímání a to s kým se identifikuji v příběhu, změnilo, a jak případně.

Moving, sometimes uncomfortable, often hedonistic. You love these characters despite their flaws. However I thought it was a tad too long.
