It took me a bit to get into it but once I did I fell in love. The story is so beautifully written and it makes your heart ache for the main character.

The writing was good, but I hated the story so much.
It was messy, but oh so messy that I never really believed the end game

I was having a decent time with the book. I didn’t like the direction it took but I was still liking the writing and the other elements of the story. Then that direction it took got heated and It gave me the ick. I DNFed 58% in. First DNF in years, but I tried I really did. It just is a no for me.
