3.5

This is really a 3.5 overall for me rather than a 3. The writing her is really lovely and lyrical but the story was just too all over the place for me. There were narrative switches, selective switches, timeline switches, planet switches….it just became very complicated. The story found it’s way especially once it got to what was the center of the story for me which was Tempest. I loved that Bacon was telling the story of this boy but from the perspectives of the women in his life. I wish it was a little more simplified but overall, it was still a good read, just one that took a lot more focus and space.
