Sometimes it is worse for us human beings to lose something dear to us
than never to have had it at all.
- Appelsinpiken [The Orange Girl]
by Jostein Gaarder
================================
I managed to finish this book last Saturday in one sitting
while waiting for Nikki to finish the Entrance Exam.
It is about a 15-year old boy named Georg whose father faced with his impending death,
left behind a long letter (story) about the Orange Girl
and a mystery for his son to solve.
I'll leave it like that since I don't want to spoil others who have not read the book yet.
P.S.
The book made me miss my Dad.
