3.0

2.5 stars, rounded up. The beginning sucked me in and then the middle half seemed to drag on and I started to lose a lot of steam in reading this one. The writing is at times poetic, and other times too verbose. I understand why the author felt it was important that the plot run over a long course of time, but it felt a little jolted and like maybe some of the decade covered could have been more focused and less mundane. The ending redeemed it a bit, but there was such a slog to get there.
