I'll be honest. I don't think gothic genre is for me. I can tell this is excellently written, but I'm not at all hooked or interested in it. I'll finish reading it though.

Ok I finished. Spiritually I checked out at the 47 percent mark so I'm not sure what happened. Things. Things happened, in a very dreamy manner. Welp. No rating, personally.
