    The book is totally amazing! I just couldn't stop until I finished it, though the outcome was predictable. Great story, captivating and thrilling and once again makes you stop and think a little, which is always good, espscialli in the Digital era we live in now.

    Ненавиджу погані кінцівки, але чого ще можна чекати від тупої головної героїні 😬😂 Сюжет книги - супер, кількість питань для роздумів зашкалює, рекомендую.

    The book was fine, but I hated the movie.

Quotes

  • Eugenia Ivanovahas quoted5 years ago
    Most people would trade everything they know, everyone they know—they’d trade it all to know they’ve been seen, and acknowledged, that they might even be remembered. We all know we die. We all know the world is too big for us to be significant. So all we have is the hope of being seen, or heard, even for a moment.”

    “Well, I did. That’s how I got to where I am now. It’s all about planning and it’s all about follow-through.”
