Complicated
I really wanted to like this book, but it was so slow and meandering. It was hard to get a grasp for the characters, and the ending was super sudden and very vague. Lots of magical realism.
A lot of the relationship building between the two was glossed over. There were a couple scenes but their romance definitely didn't shake the earth or however it was described in the end.
I did like the blunt talk about periods. That was refreshing to see.
