The writing style of this book was incredibly difficult for me to sink my teeth into. The story is constructed in such a way that it isn’t always obvious who is doing what in the plot, or why - indeed, there were multiple moments of characters even pondering “she didn’t know why this was happening” or “he didn’t know why he felt compelled to do this”. And honestly? Same.
My husband loved this book and how it was told - said he liked not knowing everything and “just letting the story wash over him”. I had a miserable time, and this book is just 100% Not For Me. And that’s fine.
