I really wanted to like this book, but I kept trying and trying and just couldn’t get into it. DNF at page 73.

I did not realize that Remedios was a real person until the end of the book which bumped my rating from 3.25 to 3.5 and better helped me understand that pacing a purpose of the story line. The idea of telling the story through tarot cards was a lot of fun.
