The beginning was irritating. 

I often don't like the author's portrayal of his characters in an unemotional and irrational way. But sometimes they develop into rational characters that you start to love.

Somewhere along the way, the characters began to bloom and make me feel everything they were feeling. 

I cried like I have never cried before! I was an inconsolable mess. 

Full star ratings because the rest of the story was off the charts, compared to the beginning.
