Mon Chéri und unsere demolierten Seelen

This book about a clumsy and neurotic 40 year old Swiss woman - winner of the Austrian book prize - was a bit of a struggle for me. At first the humour made me chuckle, but as the book is a lot chunkier than it should be, I soon got rather annoyed at the chaos magnet woman and her endless quirky thoughts. But by the end - with the end finally in sight - i made peace with it, and then enjoyed the anticipated wholesome messy-family reunion.

What I did enjoy about this book, is how it made me want to listen to the songs it mentioned.
