Slow to get in to but I really enjoyed the majority of the book, especially reading about Isabelle’s character.
Circular plot with a VERY emotional ending (I sobbed).
Multiple parts of the book didn’t make sense (timings wise) and some plot lines were left unanswered.
One thing that annoyed me was that the book was more about romantic love than sisterly love and I wish it focused more on Vianne and Isabelle together. Following this point, I don’t think Isabelle needed a love interest, especially one that was present (physically or mentally) throughout the plot.
