I really wanted to enjoy this book. I was immediately in love with the cover and the blurb pulled me in. However, the story was painfully slow. Events would happen throughout the novel and, despite being a big deal, the main character and the rest of her family would just sort of move on. Everything felt anticlimactic. I didn't find any of the characters likeable, and felt a little let down as I thought this might have been more of a queer story.
