I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it.

I received this book for Christmas from my wish list and I wasn‘t disappointed. It is the story, told in short chapters, of the narrator‘s experience of living in temporary assisted housing for young people with mental illness. It explores themes of the uneven division of power, what it means to be mentally ill, and where does helping cross into abuse. A fascinating short novel.

sarahbarnes This sounds really intriguing. 3w

Phoebe, a trans woman living in Copenhagen, is surprised to find her ex, Grace, on her doorstep. She hasn't seen Grace since their breakup, before her transition, and must come to terms with where her new life fits within the story of her past.

It is a book of thought and ideas, and of place and belonging (Copenhagen really comes alive). Not much happens, but that's okay. Cont'd in comments...

TheKidUpstairs Emmanuel's writing is charged with wit and cleverness. Often, it unfortunately gets bogged down in its cleverness and I ended up skimming chunks. It still gets a pick because, as a debut, there is a lot of promise here, I loved Phoebe, the sense of place was excellent, and many of the ideas presented will stick with me for a long time. 2mo

Virkelig god bog, som er velskrevet og indlevende. En gribende kvindelivshistorie, som viser, hvordan livet kan vise sig fra sin værste side, men samtidig indgyder håb i form af det fællesskab, der beskrives i venindekredsen.
