I love the overall idea. It was easy to read, the writing style was nice. I just didn't like the ending too much, even if the gist is clear, it didn't work for me that well. That being said, I think there are a lot of interesting thoughts, especially if it's a topic that you didn't think about a lot. Maybe for me it was not as exciting as I spent a lot of time thinking about similar topics myself already. The fact that basically all of Noras problems dissapeared within a day that she's back feels really like it's going against what the book was trying to tell in my opinion, so I guess I wish it had shown more of a side where she still had struggles, but was able to deal with it better.
