Sammy (sammystarbuck) | 3765 comments And done! Really enjoyed my re-read. I think saskia is a great MC, and I really like her daughter Lotte too.

I just wish Eduardo ballerini was better at accents... In this book alone I discovered he can't do Dutch, Scottish, Indian or Australian 😆


Jenny | 2156 comments Yeah, but he can do a Texan accent pretty well.
teehee

I just started the reread yesterday, and plan to get most of it if not all finished today. I agree about Saskia. I just love the opening scene with the plane landing amidst the unexpected wildlife. Definitely sets the tone for the book.


Sammy (sammystarbuck) | 3765 comments I also find her conversation with her daughter about getting "vitamin D" amusing.

The Dutch are some much less puritanical than other countries. When we moved back to the UK, I had to seriously dial back the kind of stuff I would have said, because the Dutch are so much more forward and the British can't handle that 😆
