Whole book could be summed up with, "who asked?"
You have to make me WONDER what makes the character the way they are before making the whole book about why they are the way they are. There was no discernable plot that I could see, just kind of a history of a married couple all out of order. There was nothing interesting enough to warrant a whole book, I kept thinking this should just be a family history reference, I have no reason to be reading this. The writing style was rather lovely in general, but overall neither the plot nor the characters were compelling enough to draw me in.
