The plot is lackluster to me and I found the “murder” stuff to be melodramatic. I also genuinely don’t understand why they built a random ass bridge. If it was destroyed so many years ago, why is the dad coming out of the woodwork to ask his kids he abandoned to help him build a bridge?
I found Penelope’s life to be the most interesting. If the book was from her perspective, I probs would have liked it more

Big TW for death of a parent which underpins the whole story.
A big beautiful story set vividly in Austrialia, with the characteristic writing style of Markus Zusak. He has produced another masterpiece.
