It's a book! Charles Dickens got paid by the word and you can see it in this book. There are stories and subplots that just didn't need to exist.
Overall I enjoyed the book but I would have enjoyed it if it was half the word count so much more. Our characters are sweet and interesting but they feel very one note overall for me. We have a bad guy, we have a good guy, we have an honest guy... So on and so forth.
Read the spark notes.
