Even though I had a hard time getting through the start of this book, I was engaged and enjoying it by the end. The first section was a lot of exposition starting from Ariadne’s childhood and I felt like I was trying to get through it to get to the bulk of the story. I wish that it was presented slightly differently in a way that felt more like the beginning of the story and not like the lead up to it. Certain things I wish had gotten more attention and depth. The bulk of the story I really enjoyed and liked the depth of the characters and their complicated relationships.
