Schön geschrieben, insbesondere das Setting Ljubljana ist detailgetreu rübergekommen. Aber es liegt daran, wie Männer über suizidale Frauen schreiben (die natürlich stets schön, schlau, sexuell und trotzdem unschuldig, bohéme und musenhaft sind). Ödes, abgenutztes Klischee... außerdem wurde eine Art beide-seiten-Argument in Richtung Jugoslawienkriege gemacht, das ich nicht deutlich eingeordnet fand. Und auch sonst hat mir der Text abseits der typischen Selbsthilfe-Affirmationen nichts gegeben.

Przekaz książki pozytywny, ale nie wzbudziła we mnie żadnych emocji… Nie odkryłam w tej książce żadnych nowych myśli, na co liczyłam.

Honestly not my fave. I found much of the dialogue to be stilted or contrite and the ending was v predictable :-\ bleh.
