I have received this book in exchange for an honest review. I have given The Book of Songs by Louice Svedin one out of five stars ⭐️ I have read on the author’s profile on Goodreads that this book was written by Louice Svedin at the age of 13 and was released in Swedish, which is an incredible achievement to have such a broad imagination, however I feel that in this case when translating the book into the English language there has been confusion as there were a lot of parts in this book that were disjointed and didn’t make a whole lot of sense. In this book, you come across a lot of different characters without much character building surrounding them, which I find always quite difficult to read a book if you can’t connect with at least one of the characters. Due to this, I found myself picking up this book to read and then forgetting what had previously happened, which character I had just met or am currently engaged with. The relationships between human forms and animals was quite strange to read about and I didn’t really understand the meaning of it to be honest. I can understand the bonding with a spirit animal but it was as though they had imprinted on one another and were truly, madly in love with their (so to speak) other half. Moreover, I thought the age gaps between certain characters was quite uncomfortable with the way characters were talking about one another. Lack of punctuation used in parts of the book made it more disjointed than the dialogue itself, for example there are parts where a full stop should’ve been used to start the next sentence as the following word is a capital, but there is nothing there to space the sentences out. I definitely had to push myself to keep reading this book, as I really found it difficult to keep up and try to understand what was happening. #books #bookreview #currentlyreading #bookstagram #thebookofsongs #louicesvedin
