I am so thankful to Two Lines Press, Pirkko Saisio, and Netgalley for granting me advanced access to this galley before publication day. I really enjoyed the dialogue and plot of this book and can’t wait to chat this one up with my friends!

This book that Pirkko Saisio wrote was about a young girl and her extended family. Her mother and father her aunts and grandmother and grandfathers all seemed normal with the selling of their cabin and cars when they needed money. The girl was sickly often and stayed home instead of going school. Her father worked for the Finland-Soviet Society and her mother finally worked for herself, at a shop that sold groceries. What finally happened was that the girl had gotten an Economic Doctorate and ran her mothers Stores. There is a lot of going back an forth with the story, so you don't know when her family died but they did. The story is somewhat confusing with the time but it comes out in the end.
