This isn't a book to pick up if you're looking for a lot of plot and don't want to just read about characters, their day-to-day lives, and their relationships with others. Over the last few years, I've learnt that I don't mind it one bit, and I enjoyed the writing in this one and my interest was sustained the whole way through. I mainly ended up wishing that there'd been a little more character development and growth, especially from our protagonist, and more nuance in the arc of the focal relationship.
