evitabloom's review against another edition
3.0
It's written beautifully and has an interesting plot.
However, I found it a bit boring as time was passing and struggled to finish it.
Beatrice is supposed to be 51, but she is presented like she is 60-65. Her thinking process, the way she presents herself, the way she is speaking. In my mind I constantly had the idea of a 60year old with a 30year old assistant.
I didn't feel the sparks between them, I was missing so much of the falling in love, and instead of enjoying a romance I felt like I was watching a mathematical equation.
I had so much expectations of this book, but unfortunately for me it felt really flat.
