I appreciate the overall storyline; however, I noticed a disconnect between the first and second halves. While the narrative was straightforward, I felt it lacked the seamless blend I anticipated, especially compared to the narrator's poetic style. I was expecting a more impactful and poignant experience, but instead, I found myself feeling frustrated and relieved to finally finish the book.
