Rezension von ZoëDie Protagonistin war durch ihren Witz und Optimismus sehr sympathisch. Gleichzeitig konnte ich als Leserin ihre Angst und ihren Herzschmerz gut nachvollziehen. Auch die anderen Charaktere hatten Tiefe und waren gut ausgearbeitet. Besonders haben mir hier die Freundschaften und das Gefühl der Zusammengehörigkeit gefallen. Dass man gemeinsam mit der Protagonistin versucht die Welt zu verstehen und immer wieder Häppchen ihrer Vergangenheit erfährt, hat das Buch zudem super spannend gemacht.
