I was rather pulled in by this book from the start. Daria was an engaging character, and the kind of girl I'd like to be friends with. Which made reading about her life and choices kind of difficult, I think I often would have had the same reaction to her that her American friend Jane had. I just felt so deeply for Daria, wanting the best for her, that I almost felt protective of her.
Daria is a non-native English speaker, so there are little parts in the book where she conjugates words in English, such as âswim, swam, swumâ. I found myself doing this in my actual life, in my head anyway, because it was just so charming! It's the kind of thing I never think about in my own language, and realistically it's probably good to get me thinking about the different forms of our words.
