I don’t understand what happened in this book. I don’t know if you’re supposed to fully. I don’t entirely know what to make of it. I was bored in the beginning, but then I started getting more interested. Especially seeing Miri’s side of things. There’s not really Leah’s present side of things? but I think the strong part of the book for me was the emotional aspect that Miri brought out. Ig dealing with love and loss and stuff

With such interesting characters, there was a lot of potential for having a very compelling and complex plot that was not taken advantage of
