I won't get into many detail, but I thought it was only ok at the beginning. Rin was someone I could sympathise with, but her temperament and attitude were hard for me to connect with. Because of this, some of her choices frustrated me immensely. Unfortunately, this just got worse as I approached the end of Part 1 and started Part 2, and I decided to stop reading the book for a while. After I had let it stew in my mind, I finally got back to it, and my goodness did it pay off!
Some of the discussions and themes at the start of the book were very good and set some of the scene for the rest of the book, but they truly hit hard as the book progressed. (Spoilers ahead, maybe?) Lots of the themes relate to
The end of the book is a culmination of all these themes and it is devastating, but you can't help wanting more.
