The Fires by Sigríður Hagalín Björnsdóttir, Larissa Kyzer
2.0
Two stars is generous and that's only for the last 20% of the book.
There are no quotations used in the translation which was hard to get used to. The main character, Anna, constantly talks about how she should be behaving as a reserved, middle-aged woman. I was invested in this book for the volcanoes and science but the love story and multiple "heartbreaks" in various aspects of her life ruined it over and over again.
