I have a hard time liking this book. I think the premise is really good and has a fantastic set up, but the execution was repetitive and dragged out. I commonly had to read about Oat's "Bottle Green Eyes" and the fact that the Goode family curse is so tragic, and I get it, the curse is the main plot of the book, but why do I have to be reminded every other page. I'm aware of how terrible the curse is!
The book could've easily been a short story with 100 less pages, or stayed the same length if it had more events in the book.
