Is she happy? She doesn’t understand. She has never considered it. It is possible to be so entirely happy you never ask the question.
I've written my review once, but it's lost somewhere between all the notes and stuff, and honestly I don't really remember what happened in this book anymore, but I'll try again.
Sophie was a lovable character in her own way, although she had some weird things, she gave me a bit of a twisted Barbie feeling (and basically the whole book).
The plot was fast - very fast - twisted and a bit tangled, to be honest, but for such a small book, I think that's acceptable. It was full of biblical references (the basic story itself could have come from there - Adam & Eve & Lilith) or something like that. A short read was fine in its own way, but I wouldn't say I liked it very much.

It starts off eerie, I mean, what woman wakes up that perfectly in a perfect world.
It makes you think, in some cases I wish I could wake up that way, and in others, I’m glad I live with the ability to think and observe my surroundings critically.

I recommend reading “Everything is Not Fine” a Review of Comfort Me with Apples by Christina Ladd on Interstellar Flight Magazine. Christina’s review is everything I want to say; she took the words right out of my mouth.
