I liked this book for the most part, but there were a couple of things that bothered me. First, the stream-of-consciousness writing when a character is thinking/experiencing something was confusing at times--who is thinking these things? Most of the time it's Esme, and so the disjointed and disconnected thinking seems appropriate. At other times it seems like it's Kitty, but I can't be sure. And a few times it was so disjointed that I had no idea what it was all about.
The second thing that bothered me was that Kitty, because of her dementia, takes no responsibility for what happens to Esme. And so the ending didn't seem right. I wanted to know more about what happened in Kitty's life. I wanted to care more about her.
