I just finished reading this book last night and let's just say it left me...disconcerted! I love Dorrestein's writing style and the themes she develops here but the plot is just... I don't know, I just don't get it! When I first started reading the book, I was enjoying it a lot (actually even more than I did A Heart of Stone) but then I got to page 90 or so and the "bridge incident" in Groningen and I thought: seriously?! For me, the book just goes downhill from there, the plot is just very disappointing and doesn't make much sense, what a shame...
