Book may have been well written, but the main character was so bitter and resentful I really couldn’t stand this book. It was slow, depressing and it had a very unsatisfying ending.

Couldn’t stand this book and I don’t recommend.

The characters were insufferable, the plot weak and not connected. It started out strong, but became worst as the book unfolded.
