Jag lyssnade på Hjorths Sommarprat förra året och det är därifrån jag valde att lyssna på boken! Den är väldigt grov i delar och tar upp måna tunga ämnen även om det görs på ett realistiskt och försiktigt sätt för läsaren. Kolla på triggar varningar om du vet med dig att det finns delar som är jobbiga! Det var delar i boken när jag inte ville läsa vidare men tyckte mycket om språket. Hon använder sig av enkla ord och gör språket lättförståeligt även fast det är ordentligt och vuxet. Det var en lite längre bok men jag är glad att jag lyssnat på den! Jag rekommenderar ändå den, men förstår 100% att det inte är en bok för alla! Den är väldigt repetitiv, men viktig och intressant!

4.0

A stressful and steadfastly stream of consciousness account of estrangement and the strictures of family bonds.
