1st Reading
After finishing this book that took me so long, because I had to put it away so many times, I can say I really love it. It's one of the books that made me cry at the end because it was over. And all this is probably because I had to put it away so often, not sure weather to go on reading it or just return it to the library. I read on, put it away again and thought about what I had read, then I picked it up again. This is one of those books I can only appreciate after finishing it, with knowing the author wanted me to put it away and think about it. It's perfect.
2nd Reading
Reading this book the second time around - a few years later - I noticed some incoherencies, but then it might have been lost in translation. I still love this book and it still makes me cry at the end.
