Thoroughly enjoyed this read! There was some truly beautiful and thoughtful writing, and the storyline held my interest. 

It may have been a tad bit long and there were a few loose ends
(like what was the point of making Linus such a creepy brother/old man? I didn’t fully understand where she was going with that. If it was just to have a receive to get Eliza back at Blackhurst, I feel like she could have gone about it differently)
, but the ending was still super solid. 

I can’t wait to read more by this author!
