TBH, I picked this up for the birds. I wanted to try a literary fiction book, and it was the birds that led me to choose this one.
Disappointingly, it was much more about melancholic wanderlust. Highly recommended to people looking for that, but not recommended to people wanting to learn more about Arctic Terns.

I suppose I am just not a Literary Fiction Girlie.
