Review of 'Dreams of significant girls' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

The idea of this (girls with wildly different backgrounds raising Cain at Swiss boarding school camp in the early 70s) was good and the multi-ethnic angle also interesting but in the end it slipped over the edge of the sentimental, I though. But not THAT badly.
