nokisuu's review against another edition

Hämmentävä ja ajatuksia herättävä teos, jossa on muutamia hyvin kielellisesti hämmästyttävän kauniita kuvauksia.
Jos olet niitä ihmisiä, jotka lukevat vain yhden kirjan vuodessa, niin lue tämä.

a book pilfered from eva’s bookshelf - about alternate realities, families, darkness. i liked the gentle, soothing rhythm of the book even amongst the violence and fear the author writes about. i liked the ending, the way it was tied up so neatly and yet also unraveled

elon's review against another edition
Den här var svår att få grepp om. Oväntad, förutsägbar, spretig och förvirrande. Men fint språk och intressant upplägg och fin röd tråd, som eventuellt är lättare att följa i bokform än i ljudboksformat. Perfekt bokcirkelbok, men jag var nog inte helt redo för den nu. Jag måste nog låta den ligga ett tag innan jag kan tycka något ordentligt kring den. Jag lär behöva återkomma. Läsvärd var den, men jag kan inte helt greppa varför.

I am not really sure how to rate or review this book. I feel like something might have gotten lost in translation. But, from what I did read it was very intense sense and the beginning. Plus, reading it was a bit disorienting, but I think that was the point.
Overall, I didn't hate this book, but I didn't really enjoy reading it either.

The blurb sounded so very intriguing but vague enough that I didn't know the whole plot. It was intense, sometimes difficult read and very !much more serious then i could have imagined going on. Was more in for a thriller kind of book but this was more of a distopian but a very good book and I'm glad I didn't know much going into it

Not for everyone, but I loved it. This narrative is wild, in a good way, though there is no clear distinction between speakers’ sections nor, in some cases, their voices. The plot comes together at the end, clearing the confusion and, for me, the text was written (in my case also— translated) beautifully enough to keep me engaged.

Oj vilken bok. Sällan en bok både gör mig fysiskt illamående och samtidigt berör mig djupt och tvingar mig läsa om stycken flera gånger för att formuleringarna tilltalar så.
