alenka 's review for:

The Property by Rutu Modan, Jessica Cohen
5.0

I love this so so much; I like it more than Exit Wounds. In some ways it's similar - complicated family dynamics, children searching for maybe hopeless answers - but it comes together in a way that I think Exit Wounds does not. All the characters are so interesting and different; Regina especially is so likable and wonderful. I loved (small spoiler) when she hit someone on the head with her purse! What a lady. I am Polish but was born here and have only been to Warsaw as a tourist; it was really interesting and fun to see it from this perspective.
