I love the premise of the book but it began to really feel like a slog around the 60% mark- just repetitive narration about the protagonist's struggles without any real progress or communication in a way that I wanted to see. I got bored and ended up skimming the rest- just not for me in the end. Thank you to NetGalley for the eARC.
