I'm not sure how to feel after finishing this book. I definitely didn't hate it but I was never sure if I enjoyed or was confused by the lyrical writing style.
I think the narrator for the audiobook was a perfect choice though and most of the time the lyrical style made me feel at peace with what was happening in the story, much like I feel Aurora might feel at the end of it all.
