![]() I probably put it away in the garage when I cleared out my bookshelves a while ago. Then I only watched the movie now, because I realised it was on Netflix. It would be fun to reread the book now, because I only remember the “big” details of the plot, but I can’t find my copy. I read the book much later, when I was 15, because my mum gave me the author’s first two books for my birthday that year. The book was awarded a prestigious literary prize here in Sweden and got a lot of attention, and I think the movie got some awards as well. This movie is almost ten years old by now, and it’s based on a book that was published way back in 2003. Obviously, that’s a lot to deal with, at the same time that you’re in your early teens and have friends and school to deal with at the same time. That eventually forces them to move in with Jenna’s grandmother. ![]() We follow 13-year-old Jenna, whose mother has cancer. Directed by Lisa Siwe | 2009 | 3.5 feathers ![]()
