Slow-moving romance novel. I quite enjoyed it, but I couldn't pinpoint what I liked about it and sometimes found myself bored or uncomfortable with certain elements. I think I was hoping for more from the book about which I had heard so many rave reviews (hence my missing star and a bit) but overall it was lovely, with a beautiful ending.
