Love all three regardless of how tragically unhappy it was. \n\n\"The Time Is Night\"\nThe book title did actually tell the right thing about what to be expected. The development of the story was insanely interesting-- straightforward, a bit humorous, totally wicked. I did sighed a lot for the tantrum and conflict, the mess and family drama but I love how Anna telling me the story from her perspective (although I felt like being dragged into such a hassle). Nothing good about all character's personalities, the miseries were tremendous but the realness and 'crisp', emotions, and frustration been presented so well throughout the narratives. I love the author's writing style it feels like she just blurted out each point into a sentence, giving it a soul, developed each into a paragraph, pinch of thoughts and feelings, honesty and disclosure. Might be too stressful and tiring to some, psychotic too but however the story goes not every family is a happy untwisted family, anyway.\n\n\"Chocolates with Liqueur\"\nAnother harsh and hysterically insane story of a family. Chocolates with liqueur and a hidden motive. The characters always giving me such a headache, so troublesome-- Nikita especially, and his sister too. Loving the way of narration and unexpected plot at the end. \n\n\"Among Friends\"\nUniquely various characters with such interesting personalities. A story among friends living in an absurd communal life, such a bizarre friendship. A fast and rush narratives, with every problem a person could encounter in a life, trying to survive. From a messy and complicated relationship to family problems, and someone secretly trying to fix all the things before death coming knocking on the door.\n\nSuch macabre and grotesque vibe, a slight of social and economic issues depicted as well. Overall, it grasp my attention about the author and her writings. Probably would read another few books by her.",4,"none","rv-01kr81zqsrb81tmf2hxqhpp4nr",[],"2026-05-10T04:23:04.000000Z",{"first":7,"last":7,"prev":7,"next":7},{"path":109,"per_page":110,"next_cursor":7,"prev_cursor":7,"has_more":20},"https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fapi\u002Fworks\u002F01kr81zp0qdp5jx2bjcnjqncmk\u002Freviews",20]
