This was decent if a bit slow in places.

This book was tough to get into and once I did went extremely quickly. Maybe I’m too much of a romantic and the title should have made it obvious what the contents would be but I would have liked at least one character to cheer for. I am giving three stars because I enjoyed her writing style and the storytelling was strong. I hope her future novels include someone, just one person that doesn’t make me want to shake them but she can write whatever she pleases and I hope she continues to do so!

It was a satisfying enough ending but after finishing it I felt like the decisions some of the main characters made were so poor.ceejay's review against another edition

It was good! The beginning hooked me, but then a majority of the book felt bland. All of the characters felt super real and the author’s writing felt like I was right in the middle of this story. Now I want to go to Ireland

Kept waiting for this to get good. All of the characters are unlikeable or frustrating. I really gotta stop finishing books just because I was over halfway into when I decided it wasn’t going to be for me.
