It took me a moment to get into the novel, but eventually I found myself really captivated by the story. While the writing makes it clear that this is McNamara’s first novel, the ambition of the author to explore deep themes and difficult emotions overrides the sometimes juvenile quality of the prose.
I really enjoyed the liberties the author took with changing the intertwined myths, and the story was entertaining overall.
