andrewhatesham's review against another edition

reflective slow-paced

3.25

I think understanding the context surrounding this as well as the subtext is really important, otherwise you'll likely get bored. This is very much something you read for the journey, not the destination, so don't go into this expecting any twists and turns.

As a fan of fast paced reads, this was definitely a challenge for me, but I am glad I finished it because I actually enjoyed the second half more than the first!
