Great book. Great characters. Great story. Well paced.
I’m not sure if it was the writers style/formatting or my brain that had a hard time keeping things straight in my head. I found myself having to go back and reread sections, or losing my place pretty regularly.
At the end of the day it all worked out and was super. Not exactly student - teacher and not exactly enemies - lovers. This book took into consideration a lot regarding professional relationships, power dynamic and even age; academic settings can muddy the water.
It fell a little short in some of the specifics surrounding grad school, but, considering most of the people who read it will not be PhD candidates I don't think it really matters in the end.
