To believe the criticism is THE book of the summer ... I am torn because this book is light as a sea breeze, it's true but it is a little heavy, long, and I have personally wanted repeatedly it will move it to end ... the principle of opening a library in the middle of nowhere and share his passion for books to people who have never read anything, is an idea that I would have liked have. But the background story with its inhabitants a bit special with their own story to everyone, a little tormented, m 'a least favorite. Moreover, I found the very end sloppy as if author was soon to end ... but this first book of Katarina Bivald's still a success if you love the books because it necessarily makes reference to a book that was already read and loved.
