Had niet verwacht dat dit boek zo zwaar zou vallen op de ziel. Normaal geen fan van Nederlandse literatuur maar dit is knap geschreven

Really enjoyed reading this book. The way the main character’s past is revealed is very good. Slowly, at unexpected points, unsettling details are revealed and her family’s tragedy unfolds itself. There are no big turns or twists. It was very consistent but told in an engaging way, switching back and forth from the past to the present seamlessly.
