Not so sure about this one, obviously I read a translated version so I could have missed something, but I found the writing much to simplistic, resembling a script. I think the book presented a really interesting concept and didn’t made the most of it. I was expecting an exploration of grief and family relations and I didn’t get much of that, kind of a wasted potential.
