Another win for Caroline Wahl in my book. Ida is not unlike her sister Tilda, and therefore Windstärke 17 has a lot of similarities to [b:22 Bahnen 63886925 22 Bahnen Caroline Wahl https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1669725248l/63886925.SY75.jpg 99839161]. She's a loner, has her talents and her idiosyncrasies, comes from a fraught family, and prefers to battle her demons alone. Until she meets a fellow traveller, who seems just as damaged as her. Wahl's narration style just tickles me in all the right ways. It's lightweight and wry, and yet also dark and emotional. All the Tilda and Victor cameos make me want to reread the 22 Bahnen. So curious where Wahl will go next, there's no 3rd sister after all.
