I don‘t know. It was hard for me to get involved with one of the main characters because she just wasn‘t very likable and I think that turned me off in the beginning and made it hard for me to get into the book. It was one of those books with different narrators and I do enjoy seeing things from different perspectives.

Ehhh. It was an easy read and parts of it were interesting but the ending left me somewhat unfulfilled.

AMAZING. I loved the narrative form and some, actually most, of the sections had me riveted. I literally read it in a day (albeit one where I had a lot of time). I couldn‘t put it down, yet every section ends in a way that makes it easy to put down if you don‘t have a whole day to read like I did.

Colleenolivia Of course! It takes place in a northern part of Russia sometime after the fall of the Soviet Union and I felt like I really learned some stuff because a large part of the plot also revolves around the Russians (who are all white) and the northern native immigrants (who are darker). 3y

It‘s interesting, but a slower read for me at the end of the day. I enjoy it, but need to adjust when I‘m reading it in order to stay awake.
