Interesting. Think it really picked up right at the end. Can’t say I think I’m the target audience but no regrets reading it.

I have mixed feelings. I felt the writing was strong, but my perhaps the biggest issuenwas structural– or rather, in regards to time. I didn't feel like the amount of time that passed actually did pass. I was often thrown off, because it says a year has passed and it read to me like a few months.
Another thing that nagged on me, was the question of Nathan's charm. He's constantly described as charming, but I struggle to see it.
In terms of the story at large, it was thoughtful and contradictory, very much an interesting book.
