 Like it really wasn’t a perfect book, there was quite a few characters that were really underdeveloped. There were also some plot lines that I just didn’t like, especially in the second half of the book. But I still loved it. I didn’t like the ending tho it was really underwhelming, I’m like a little bit disappointed. But I really, really enjoyed reading this book and It’s the first book in a long time that I feel sad about finishing reading.

I tried very hard to follow what was happening but I just couldn’t. But I still finished it cause the audiobook was good.

It was a sad and beautiful. The writing was really nice and I felt like it could have been a really, really great book. But the plot just wasn't there, I could not tell you what this book was about. It kind of just felt like a bunch of unrelated events that don’t really effect the rest off the story.

Its really hard to rate the book because the Swedish translation was just horrible. And it’s kind of sad because I think it might have been a good book otherwise.
