Beautyland by Marie-Helene Bertino

5.0

Are you ever struck by an overwhelming desire to relive a day from your childhood, just to remember what it felt like to be in your body at that time? Thats how the first part of this book made me feel. Seeing the world through Adina's eyes is a gift, and I'll remember her forever. Beautiful and perfect in every way. Laugh out loud funny at times, and so deeply revealing of our quirks and shortcomings and triumphs. 

What is essential is invisible to the eye
