Das Buch hat mich direkt in die 70er versetzt und Nostalgiegefühle in mir geweckt, von denen ich nicht mal wusste, dass ich sie hatte. TJR ist es in diesem Buch gelungen, in einem Format zu schreiben, das einen vergessen lässt, dass man im Grunde nur direkte Reden liest und das gleichzeitig stark davon profitiert, dass man nur direkte Rede liest. Die Personen haben Ecken und Kanten und wachsen einem genau deswegen so stark ans Herz, das Pacing ist toll, der Plot holt einen ab und lässt einen nicht mehr los. Mit eins meiner Lieblingsbücher des Jahres

Ich musste mich anfangs kurz auf die besondere Erzählart der Geschichte von Billy und Dasy einlassen, dann war ich drin. Ein nettes Buch für zwischendurch.
