Sometimes I hate myself. I've had this book for what, two years? And it was still in foil. I only read it because of a dare. And it was so so good! I missed out on Connie Palmen for so long because of my bookproblem. Anyway. I'll have to read more by her to make a definitive statement about her style, I'm afraid, the book was just too short to get a feel of it. But the story told - and told among other things through books Lotte Linden reads - was touching without being sticky, if you know what I mean.
