Jucks K

Such a fun read with important discussions. I felt like it was the perfect balance between funny and serious. The narrative felt a bit slower, but this also made the reading experience more relaxing in my opinion.

Such a weird story, but cleverly written and got me stuck to the book. I loved the way the characters were developed, how they deal with trauma, and especially how the female relationships are described. There are racist comments about asians, but it felt to me as these were the main characters opinion, and not necessarily the writers.

Not my favourite, though it did leave me thinking a lot - which I take as a good sign. I didn't love the way the book jumps from one character story to another, it felt harder to connect to each story. I wanted to read more about character X and it suddenly jumped to someone else. I did enjoy Cyruses dreams, fun and improbable.

Alejandro Zambra é um dos meus autores favoritos. A sensibilidade da sua escrita é lindíssima. Me emocionei e me diverti ao longo da leitura, é um desses livros que me vejo lendo de novo em alguns anos.

Um livro que todas as pessoas brasileiras deveriam ler. A escrita do Jeferson é deliciosa, mesmo se tratando de temas tão sérios.
