Welcome to Litsy!

It took me forever to get into this and when I finally did, it got weird...in a bad way. And then I found out the author made some awful comments about trans people. So, yeah, I'm bailing.

This is one quirky book. The story is quirky, the two main characters, brother and sister, are quirky and the ending is too! I really enjoyed the weirdness of these two siblings, their family, their lives, all made for a highly enjoyable read.

Almost bailed at the beginning of this fun and quirky book, but glad I stayed with it.

I‘ve waited too long to review this and am having a hard time remembering the plot—but honestly, it doesn‘t feel like it matters since plot is not the main point here! I thoroughly enjoyed this character-driven book. Both Greta and Valdin were likable and relatable, and I loved spending time with them and their sprawling, quirky family. My main criticism is that there were about four too many characters! At times it was a challenge keeping track⤵️

I had two 5-star books in February and it was really a toss-up. I remember the tagged book more than the other one (tagged in the comments), so I‘m choosing this one for February. #12booksof2024 @Andrew65

Just started and already in to it.

Absolutely beautiful book for my first December #roll100 definitely not one for feeling festive but a really interesting and important tale of nazi Germany. Fantastic character development and really interesting plot.
