I almost quit reading in the first half because the narration didn't seem to be going anywhere.  I kept going because a friend raved about the book, especially the change in perspective in the second half.  She was right that the second half was much more interesting. I admire what Groff pulled off as a writer, but I still don't count this as one of my favorites.

Pretentious, fluffy language that tried too hard, and a plot that really went nowhere? Had a lot of potential but just felt really flat throughout.

Forget the Fates, it's all about the Furies.
