Veldig fin bok med sterke budskap om sorg, kultur, relasjoner og ulike former for kjærlighet. Det er forfatteren selv som leser boken noe som for meg gjør lytteopplevelsen mere intim. Jeg slet litt med hennes lesemetode da den var litt lik måten en presenterer slam poetry, men det ble jeg fort vandt med. Jeg tror jeg hadde syns det var slitsomt hvis boken var mye lengre.
