Ummmmm maybe I‘m over protective or American culture is different, but I would not let my 5-6 year old son go with a woman I just met that day to a toy shop while I worked on a laptop in a cafe. 😐
On the other hand, my husband let some Ethiopian women unknown to him take our 3 month old baby into a bathroom in the Addis Ababa airport to change his diaper. First time dad - overwhelmed. 🤭
pickTara is stuck some weird time glitch and is blindly trying to find a way out!
I ordered Volume II halfway thru! I‘m going to be frustrated when I have to wait for III & IV to be released in November. I‘m sure I‘ll preorder.
Daughter of a Greenlander mother and a wealthy Dane, Smilla is a most unusual character. In Denmark, alone, she befriends a lonely boy Isaiah. A huge stuttering man, the Mechanic, becomes her lover. Isaiah, afraid of heights, dies falling from an apartment building leaving only his footprints in the snow: Smilla‘s remarkable sense of snow tells her this was murder.

However for everyone around her, it is their first time experiencing November 18. While this could be an amusing Groundhog-Day style story, instead Balle takes this in a much more interesting direction.

Have posted my review / discussion of this one.
Spoilers. But having said that.... there aren't many plot points to spoil 😁😁😁
I JEST!!!!
pickThe narrator is still living in her alternate reality of a daily returning November 18. How to spend the time when you‘re caught in that one day again and again?
It‘s a concept that I found fascinating and the author writes so well. The ending felt a bit hurried but makes me eager to read the third part!
