Unfortunately this fell extremely flat for me after all the hype. I felt nothing towards the characters and the repetitive prose started to become annoying about halfway through. I think the story was very drawn out and I kept wondering when something was actually going to happen. I didn’t love the way time jumped around but for me it wasn’t necessarily difficult to follow.
