I thought the prose was well done, and very vivid and vibrant. There felt like there was a little too much going on, and it all made sense at the end but I felt like there was a little too much pushed under the rug with the main plot. I liked June a lot, and I understood her fears and worries. I really liked her and Eamon together, though I found it frustrated at times when he didn’t trust her
because she wasn’t ‘his’ June… because she is? She just doesn’t have all the same memories?
I liked the threads that tied through the whole book but at some points, I think it was just the plot of the book that made it a little messy. Some threads (even if I liked them!) were a little too obvious, but I did listen to the audiobook so that might have changed somethings. 

For any interested audio listeners, I thought the narrator did a pretty great job, but sometimes I felt like she had a hard time with Eamon’s voice.
