Vielleicht (oder eher: wahrscheinlich?) liegt es an meiner eigenen Internatsvergangenheit, aber selten war eine Protagonistin für mich so authentisch. Ein ganz seltenes Lesehighlight, das mich durchgehend berührt hat und mich noch lange beschäftigen wird.
3,5 ⭐️. This book was definitely something else. Different from what I‘d expected it to be. I heard so many mixed reviews of this as well. I will say that I thoroughly enjoyed reading it, and I read it in just a handful of sessions. Which is quick for me. It could have been 100-150 pages shorter, sure. It was still an enjoyable and decent read for me.
After loving "The Great Believers" to a ridiculous extent I had to pick this up when I saw it in the bookstore. There are a lot of themes in here. Maybe too many? But who am I to judge. A boarding-school/coming-of-age drama, a whodunit, at least a sideways glance at the true crime genre and its problematic-ness, and of course, mainly, a meditation (maybe/probably not the right word) on violence against women and girls and how the world (and the justice system) treats this violence. I feel somewhat haunted by this book and deeply uncomfortable. But I guess that's a good thing. People wanting to be comfortable is how we ended up here.
