Reviews

[Loel · Rating 3 out of 5]

Exquisite, evocative descriptions, but nothing at all ever happens. I don't see how it's a novel...reads like a memoir of a confused bright girl but everything is interior. It was frustrating because I wanted to love it but it put me straight to sleep.

Fascinating story of a young girl haunted by her past and her innovative ways of coping. How a daughter copes with a difficult mother, with the help of a loving aunt and grandparents.
