I had to take a break from this book 50% of the way through because it put me in a rut. I’m glad I finished it, but it was hard to get through. I didn’t like that every chapter left off on a cliffhanger and the next chapter jumped a year into the future. I felt like a lot of cliffhangers were never fully “wrapped up”. I also kept finding myself thinking “I can tell a man wrote this book” every time Emma’s appearance was described.
