Definitely different from anything I normally read; at first I wasn't sure I would continue. However, the story line, although fantasy-based, drew me in and I grew to really appreciate and love the relationship between Elsa and her oh-so-eccentric Granny, as well as all the occupants of the apartment house. Hidden in among the storylines are some really good quotes and life lessons. Such as: "Because if a sufficient number of people are different, no one has to be normal" and
(Elsa asks her mother) "Don't people get married because they're full of love and then divorced when they run out of it?".
