The first half of the book held me in a vice grip - every moment. The yearning, flow of perspective, brilliant writing, gorgeous research and setting. I think I lost steam amid a shattered heart somewhere in the midst, and the second half was trickier (I did some skimming) - but truly an incredible read, just, as with grief - it can be hard to get through the hardest bits.
