The pacing on this was too slow for me, though in the context of the story it was appropriate.

Absolutely stunning.
This took me forever to get into this book, but once I did it felt like I was sinking into Maggie O'Farrell's words and I just wanted to stay there. The way she writes is like paint on a canvas. Truly beautiful.
