Wonderful... It's the third time I read it and there aren't enough words to describe the beauty of that book. It simply fascinated me!Wonderful!
I read it in English so I don't know how the Italian translation looks like ... I got so unbelievably involved in the story!

I think it is a really beautiful book! I didn't read it in English because it was easier to buy the Dutch translation. I don't think I can explain way I like the book that much, I just wanted to let you know I think it's really beautiful!

Lots of love,
Arda.
