3.0

Undeniably beautifully written with very strong and poetic moments. 

My main issue is that I never really managed to connect with the characters— which is, I guess, the point, considering their respective personalities and issues.

This book is interesting in an intriguing but also confusing and aloof sort of way, which makes it unfortunately very easy to put down. I never felt the urge to pick it back up (but didn’t want to dnf either, as it was still an unique story).

Average 3 stars.
