⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Haunting, intense, loneliness, love, survival, self reflection.

What does it mean to be human. Powerful read! I wish more people were aware of this book.

I just started this one, and I can honestly say I have no idea where I am. 🤣 Apparently, it is underground somewhere.

A group of 40 women is kept in a cage together underground, how they got there is unknown. After years, one day there‘s a sound, the door to cage is left open and they can leave.

I‘m not sure what this book was trying to say, but it does look at loneliness and belonging, and surviving.

AnneCecilie @BarbaraBB I have a feeling I will too. There‘s something scary about the landscape they escape to 5d
TrishB Definitely one of those books you don‘t stop thinking about. 5d
lil1inblue I'm just starting this! I'm so intrigued. 4d

Very philosophical genre fiction. Normally I don't go for the more literary or thought experiment sci fan but this was very good and I didn't actually mind that there are no real plot answers.

Unique and hauntingly intense. I am ruined. Filled with both hope and despair. I know it‘s early, but this is probably going to be my best book of the year. It‘s definitely on my ‘you should read this‘ list.

TheBookHippie I have that on my list!!! Good to know. 1mo

Such a terrifying, unsettling book. The lack of details only makes it more so - we only know what the narrator does, which is not a lot given that she has lived her life in captivity. The whole book is like a nightmare, as the back cover aptly points out. Nevertheless, I was riveted and like the narrator, looking for answers and meaning until the end.

Cathythoughts Great review 👍🏻❤️ I be see I have it stacked already. 2mo
TrishB I still think about this book! My fave question is where is the electricity sourced 🤷‍♀️ but I‘m full of questions! 2mo
BarbaraBB Great review. Indeed it felt like a nightmare. I still think about it too. 2mo

It's not yet midnight here so i can still say HAPPY #BOOKSPIN DAY to all who celebrate! I think my March draws are an interesting combo and I'm most excited for my DoubleSpin which is the tagged. My BookSpin this month is a little chunkier than the rest of my list because it's actually a two for one volume.

I deeply appreciate this book written by a Jewish author whose family survived nazi Germany. It is a ditopic philosophical novel. I did not enjoy the reading experience. 2.5 🌟
