Reading this book left me very conflicted. Did I enjoy it? Well, yes - most of it. The story was quite well developed and the author did a marvelous job creating the main character through whose eyes we view the story. Much of the narrative was painfully slow and caused me to skip a number of pages and I don't feel I lost any of the story. I understand what the author was trying to accomplish when she wrote the detail, but that doesn't me I had to like it - or read it for that matters.
The books ending was very disappointing. Perhaps the author felt she needed to leave it where she did, in view of the rest of the story, but that doesn't mean I had to like that either! Glad I read it, wouldn't read it again.
