I loved this book! Well written and very interesting plot. Character development was strong and it was easy to grow fond of the characters.

I still can’t made up my mind about how I rate this book. All I can say is that I loved the beginning and the end of the story. I felt tears when I finished the book. Such a beautiful ending with happiness that I didn’t expect in the middle of the story. Though I have difficulties in the middle of the story, I enjoyed the last part of the book very much.
Maybe I need to have more patience to read this book through again in the future.

I wanted to love this and it started off promising, but the middle really started to meander without aim or purpose. Perhaps a physical book instead of audio would have saved it? When I find I'm forcing myself to keep going over choosing, say, an interesting podcast I'd enjoy more, I know it's time to throw in the towel. Maybe we'll meet again someday, Count Rostov. Maybe.

Elegantly written and unexpectedly delightful, this is writing at its finest. A beautiful book.

This was not a great book. There’s way too much flavour text and seemingly pointless descriptions that take away from the characters and plot that are actually somewhat interesting. I enjoyed the ending but it felt like a slog to get to.
