I just didn’t like this as much as I’d hoped I would.

It’s a gorgeous story of love and strength in relationships but I just couldn’t connect. I think if the story was written better I would have been able to get deep into this book. I loved the mother, the father and Andrius but I couldn’t connect with Lina and her brother which is probably the main reason I didn’t like this book as much as others.

The story also took a while to get into, I think I was at 200 pages before I felt like I wanted to keep going. I was ready to give up before hand as I was loosing all hope for the storyline.

I defiantly think there could have been more depth to this book but I understand why people love it that’s why I gave this a 3 stars!
