5.0

Bogen byder på en kort fortælling om loyalitet, der følger 4 forskellige personer, to voksne og to børn. Alle personer i bogen sætter spørgsmålstegn ved, hvem de er loyale overfor, og hvorfor de er loyale. Læseoplevelsen er en følelsesmæssig rutsjebane, hvor man konstant håber på, at de giver slip på deres loyalitet men samtidig kan man godt forstå, hvorfor den loyalitet er så vigtig. 

Er man lidt træt af læse de samme historier, er denne her bog værd at åbne. 

Det er en bog, jeg helt sikkert selv vil læse igen.
