[Charlotte (Bogrejser) · Rating 4 out of 5]

Måske nærmere 3 stjerner, men kreativiteten trækker op.

Det kan tydeligt mærkes, at det er en gammel bog, men samtidigt udforsker den relevante emner såsom kulturmøder og det at blive voksen. Da jeg først var kommet lidt ind i bogen og havde fanget præmissen for fortællingen, blev den faktisk fint spændende.
