Nothing but blackened disappointment.
There are things to like about this book, but they are scant. Descriptive moments that you wish would linger, only to be usurped by poor dialogue and narrative exposition. It just doesn't feel like a complete or realised book. I didn't care about a single character or moment. It never allowed me to empathise. I wish it had.
