I didn't love the way the trans character was written, and a lot of discussions of sexuality and gender felt very cis-centric and surface level, but it was still an interesting read.

a good little book. told in five parts, each part follows one of five friends and their experiences over a period of a couple of days. they’re in their 20s and in greenland; an interesting perspective. they’ve all also got their own thing going on and although it’s pretty short, you get a piece of their lives, their problems. the chapters all have slightly different forms, and the first person is used to great effect as you really get in their heads.

hade lite svårt för bokens flow när det emellanåt är sms-screenshots som jag alltid tycker är irriterande i bokform (men det fyller absolut ett syfte i denna boken). tyckte det var väldigt fint och ömt skrivet om syskonrelationer, och överlag var det väldigt lätt och snabb-läst.

i really enjoyed reading this book. Even though it had horrible grammar that made somehow hard to read for me, the storytelling was amazing. It feels like 5 different authors wrote 5 different characters for same plotline. All characters were so unique, and that made this book such an enjoyable read. I really wish the author publishes another fiction like this, but please make sure the grammar is good enough.

It was rad to read a Greenlandic novel. Not bad.
