Personally I loved this book written as a diary for two voices. At first it's a little friendly thunderbolt in kindergarten and that continues in childhood, adolescence and adulthood Cecilia who comes from a middle class family "exploded" and Alice who comes to a simpler but middle of a united family. But is that everything can be said between friends. Is that one can trust completely? Is the unspoken not finally manage to overcome a strong friendship? Rivalry, treachery? This is probably a more feminine book, because it is a female friendship that is considered, but I have found that the words were right, the atmosphere "80 year" good. At most, I find that the book could have been a bit more substantial and the end, a bit steep, left me a little on my hunger before this friendly rupture of suffering, but I highly recommend as "The sea black "very different but excellent also.
