I knew nothing of the book when I started, so I was slightly surprised when I realised it was sci-fi! But surprised in a good way. I like a good robot book, and I very much enjoyed this one. The translation felt sound. I liked the idea for the story, and I really liked the various different characters. I found it very readable, and whilst the switches in time and view occasionally jarred, I felt like the story held together well. The only thing I didn't like (really didn't like) was the ending for Coli (the ending for the sisters was great). Not just because of what happened, but also because I didn't really understand why that was the chosen ending. But still, I'd enjoyed the rest of the book so I let it go and have imagined myself a different outcome!
