Kirja imaisi vasta loppupuolella mukaan, mutta muistan, että sitten muuten mentiin! Tämä piti lukea kouluun yläasteella, joten muistikuvat ovat hämäriä: kuivakka alku, tuskailua lukemisen kanssa, lisää tuskailua, oi nyt ehkä kiinnostaa, oi oi mitä tapahtuu, oi olipas hyvä kirja sittenkin…!

i wold rate it a 3 stars if it was i book i read to my self but what made it a 4 star for me was my Science teacher because he did so good with voices for the different characters so the story is more of a 3 but i had to give a star for my science teacher and his voices

I read this because it is a set text where I work, and somehow I never read it while I was in school. The plot was overly complicated in places but brilliantly basic in others. I found it hard to figure out who was descended from who and which generation was which. The main characters were intriguing and almost perfectly rendered but again, I had some difficulty remembering which nickname belonged to which boy and what each looked like. The side story with Katherine, the onion farmer and Trout was cute but tragic. The scenes with the onion farmer towards the end confused me initially because some of the plot is not linear. Generally a good read but I don't think I suffered too much by being deprived of it in childhood.

mega random read, aber was soll man machen wenn man spontan zu deniz geht & kein buch dabei hat 🤷🏼♀️
Alle Zeitstränge haben sich wunderbar verbunden 🤠
es behandelt auch eigentlich voll dramatische und gruselig Sachen wie rassischtischen mord und voll die quälerischen Arbeiten, und die verdursten einfach fast, aber es ist ok, weil kinderbuch hihi haha
