Once again, Netflix has managed to slip me a series that I didn't even know existed, let alone planned to watch. Yeah, and because it was so catchy and immediately drew me into the plot with its realistic and natural style, I ended up giving it a go almost in one sitting. The lead actress was very likable, as was the soundtrack and the Norwegian atmosphere, which I completely drank in. I really enjoyed it. And the second season perhaps even more so, 5 stars.

This series is easy to binge, with its short 30-minute episodes, and centers on a likable Norwegian woman in her thirties who's struggling to figure out her life — no boyfriend, a monotonous routine. It's a bit like a Norwegian take on Bridget Jones. What really charmed me, though, was the beautiful Norwegian setting, with scenes shot in the picturesque town of Røros. Plus, the Christmas atmosphere is spot on. The first season was genuinely fun, but the second, set a year later, felt a bit unnecessary.
