My Book Reviews

Emotionally Weird is one of the weirdest books I ever read. The construction is even weirder than Eyeless in Gaza by Aldous Huxley. In Dutch this would have caused to mention the so-called Droste-effect. In the book there are multiple stories in a story in yet another story in another story. It does work but it leads to the reader having to check in already read bits who these people are, because there a so many of them. I won't even try to explain what it is all about, but can say that nothing is what it seems to be. I give the book 4 stars, because I think it is over-complicated.

  Third book in the series about Jackson Brodie. Another very captivating book, loaded with action and combined with great humour. (At least in my opinion.) I will not ruin future readers joy by telling anything about the plot(s). What I love is that you get offered pieces of a jigsaw puzzle. You can try and imagine what really matters, but Kate Atkinson often will surprise you with where the story is going. Five stars fully deserved. I might read it again!
