I love the way the author uses the stanzas to suggest the feelings of the characters, to demonstrate the fast impact of grief, the adrenaline of emotion as a young girl is preparing and looking forward to seeing her daddy after such a long time. What happened to the plane? Why is her father away for half the year, does he lead a double life, does he have a family elsewhere?

This is a beautifully written novel by a talented author who uses language in such a way that she really manages to share the grief of the main characters with you. Two half sisters who never knows the other existed, Are intrinsically ties by the love of their father. This is a book for fans of verse, for fans of long lost family and for anyone who has ever felt the horrors of grief, but somehow managed to find the strength to carry on.
