PositiveWashington Independent Review of Books...a tender, funny puzzle ... Along with her young, literature-loving hero, Øyehaug lures us into the minds of a sundry cast of supporting characters, each of them tangled up in their own questionable enchantments, and all connected with the finest of gossamer threads ... But perhaps the most fascinating characters in Wait, Blink are the narrators. Known simply as \"we\" for the bulk of the novel, their identities cloaked until the end, Øyehaug\'s all-knowing storytellers steer readers from episode to episode, confiding secrets, tossing off multiple allusions, and referring to the novel itself in a fitting postmodern move that Sigrid would happily inform us dates back to Don Quixote ... In Wait, Blink, it\'s the wonderfully confounding riddles we happen upon that become the draw.
