It took me some time to get into this book, I'd say around 100 pages. Objectively, I could tell it was a good book, I just didnt feel any connection to the characters or the story. But once I did get into it, boy did I get into it. I grew to care for Agnes so much. The middle third was interesting, the last third was devastating.
