I found the pacing of this book strange. It felt very slow moving for most of the book and then the last 50 pages or so felt rushed as everything was wrapped up. I also felt like the two storylines could have been more closely connect by theme. They often felt like two completely different stories with a only a thin connection of setting.  Despite all this I did like the characters and the writing. It was an easy read and enjoyable enough though I’m not certain I’d recommend it.
