I took a while to catch me up, but eventually it did. Portuguese translation is sub-par.
A good ending, but the style of storytelling drove me off the book several times. Too many cliff-hangers told exactly the same way, like those movies that try to build suspense by slowing the action or going to another story-line. That's why it took me so long to finish. I thought I would never do it, sometimes.

Some may categorize this book as "hockey literature". Or they may say it's about sport, gender, homosexuality, power, rape, class, violence, because it's all in there. For me it's about people, their emotions, thoughts, decisions, love and hate, the bonds they make with one another and those they don't. This is the first of a trilogy, I'm ready to start the second.

Very intense emotionally. I sometimes had to pause reading and do something else to not be overwhelmed. Not many books are able to do this to me. "Britt-Marie Was Here", from the same author, was close but not quite the same. The one I remember from the top of my head that made me feel like this is "Cat's Eye", by Margaret Atwood.
