"There is so much going on around Emma, but mainly the action is going on inside of her when she tries creating the best possible life for herself. There is a lot of disturbance, many twists and turns and I admit to having previously been a bit shameful yet curious to follow Emma in the choices she makes and to see how everything will turn out.  It's easy to get stuck. But I see a change in this book, it's as if something has shifted and I am instead impressed with Emma and how far she has come, she has matured over the course of these books even if she doesn't see it herself. Not that it has necessarily become easier. It's been a true reading experience getting to know her and the emotional storms she has gone through. It gets stuck on me, her journey, because everything seems so real.

I was close to saying that it feels so commonplace, but that is not really what I mean, it's more self recognition and so lifelike with how many sides there are to life and it is deeply touching to read. By a couple of times a few tears found their way down my cheeks and rather often it was difficult to read, because it brings up a lot of thoughts within me, yet I still enjoyed reading it. I basically binge-read it in one sitting and liket it a lot, possible my favorite one about Emma." - Lion's Library, Book blog

It is lovely with books you can't put down. I was intending to enjoy if for a week at least, but that didn’t work … Couldn’t let go of it. So god! It leaves me with such a god feeling! Thank you!

Link to a reader review in Swedish where the reader went back and read the first two novels AGAIN to write a review on the whole trilogy.

Extract from the review:

"The books contains a lot of recognition, we have all been in situations like Emma is faced with. Not all of us deal with it the same way as Emma does, she hikes the 80 miles long pilgrimage to Santiago the Compostela, a life changing experience." (...)  The trilogy about Emma and her struggle to make the right decisions in life is something we can all identify with. Life is not simple and sometimes we have to make hard choices, that not only affects us but the people around us. Camilla Davidsson describes this very well. And what could have been books that lectures us has instead become three darling good reads with lovely descriptions of surroundings and nice characters. (...) It's hard to let go of Emma and her life, and her life choices brings out both frustration, makes me annoyed and happy at the same time. "
