This is a challenging one for me to review! At times I couldn't decide if I loved or hated the writing style and that usually is what kills a book for me. But I loved the layers to this story. The book really grew on me as I continued. I would certainly recommend it though I think the first quarter is not a breeze to get through. I wish 
the affect of the abbey on its local environment and Marie's climate disaster vision were woven more throughout the story.  I thought it added another interesting perspective which is not often included in books of this genre, but it arrived later in the story and felt like more of a last minute thought than I'd have liked.
