3.0

Well written, but the short story format is never really for me. Some characters I liked and wanted to see more of, others I trudged through.

I think there was something off-putting about reading an endlessly rainy book when it was gloriously sunny weather outside too! It certainly evoked the feelings of being uncomfortably cramped with your loved ones well.

All in all, I feel like my rating is unfair, but it just didn't quite speak to me.
