A little bit poetic and depressing for a dark winter's day. Listened to it in one sitting, though!

I enjoyed this book, I think this book was well writing and the atmosphere was well written but I think it was too short and I think at this book better if it was longer. The characters needed to flash out bit more and the cover of book was fine also the ending was okay.

I just didn't connect to the writing style, but there is no denying this book is powerfully written.
