Liked
This book is widely praised as an engaging and inspiring read, offering an exciting journey through significant periods of Danish history. Readers appreciated its personal approach, which successfully avoids becoming overly political despite the author's background, instead focusing on her life story. Many found it particularly inspirational for women, highlighting themes of work, career, and conscious life choices, portraying the author as a strong and admirable figure who lived life on her own terms and maintained a unique marriage. The text is described as easy to read and accessible, and listening to the audiobook, narrated by the author herself, was noted to add an extra layer of credibility and depth.
Disliked
However, a recurring point of criticism among reviewers concerns the book's structure. Many found that it does not follow a clear chronological timeline, instead jumping between different events and periods in a way that felt somewhat random or "messy." This lack of a stringent structure or clear common thread meant that the narrative sometimes read more like a series of disconnected snapshots or "drops" from the author's life rather than a continuous memoir. Additionally, one reviewer noted a desire for more information about the author's more recent experiences.
In short
Despite these structural observations, the overall consensus is that the book remains highly entertaining and provides valuable insight into a positive person's worldview. It is recommended for readers interested in personal memoirs, especially those who appreciate delving into the private life and motivations of public figures without necessarily needing a strictly linear narrative. Those seeking inspiration regarding career, life choices, and personal resilience, as well as anyone curious about a prominent Danish personality and her unique perspective on life, would likely find this book a rewarding read.
