This book isn't just a book about books. It is more so a book about life and friendships and grief. And love. And loving. And grieving that love.
Most of the characters are in their 50s, and since majority is spent in dialogues among the characters, the book is overall rather slow-paced. During their journey along the river, and in betwern docking to different harbours, or when they finally arrived at their destination, the book explored more the characters' individual point of views about love, grief, their experiences, their ideologies, etc.
The themes in this book makes me want to pick up another book by Nina George. It has that healing effect, which is what she intended for her book. And I believe she's accomplished that here.
