A review by alexture
Homesick by Jennifer Croft

I read this book in one go, thought "this was amazing, probably just a bit too bleak to be a believable story". Then I opened The Storygraph to mark it as complete and found out it was a memoir.

Bon.

I really liked the division of the book into short scenes of daily life, or of an extraordinary nature. The love of languages and the loathing of every horrible thing life can throw at us meshed into a heartbreaking story that I think I'll read over and over and over, when I'm ready to face it again.
