Yes, part of that came from the main character’s decisions. However, it’s easy to cast judgement when removed from a situation and that is I think the main point of the book. I also knew that I would be frustrated with that going in, so I am going to stay away from that for the rest of my review.
First, the main ale character has no attractive/redeeming personality traits. He is annoying, arrogant, and manipulative. He was never a fun character to read about.
Second, there were diary entries from when the main female character was 15/16, which were obviously not written by a teenager. They had years of reflective commentary that made no sense. Also it would have been so easy to just have them be memories and it would have all made sense, so why weren’t they?
Third, the Boston elements make almost no sense. I fully acknowledge this is nit picky and I have read books set in other cities where the same thing happens, but this is where I live and these were noticeable. This woman driving everywhere? Don’t believe it for a second. Massachusetts General Hospital, never heard a single soul call it that and I know people that work there.
Fourth, these people say each others names way too often.
Finally, just random stuff that made no sense and would take me out of a scene. A doctor taking a nap with his stethoscope still on. Steampunk being referred to as new in 2016. The main female character just casually read the Bible as a teen.
I am curious enough about the characters that I haven’t totally decided against the second, but it’s still up in the air.
