Cold Enough for Snow by Jessica Au
3.0
Cold Enough for Snow is a novella about a trip that a mother and a daughter take together to Japan. That trip prompts a lot of memories and thoughts to resurface. The book has this cold, wintery atmosphere to it, with simple writing but full of emotion nevertheless, and a nice pace when it came to the main narrator's thoughts.
And yet, the ending as well as the whole description of the trip were all partial and needed a bit more space and a bit more details. Maybe the relationship between the daughter and the mother should have more depth into it, and that too felt partial and read between the lines.
Still, the book is easy to read and a beautiful short piece of a slice of life.
