i felt the first half was slow and i plodded along through it because of the rave reviews i’d seen, but the second half picked up and i was hooked. i think abigail is an easier read, but this one is more emotional, which i’m a sucker for. i was sure i’d not enjoy this book but it really turned around for me.
