this is a lovely book filled with sharp and to the point prose. I found the scenery dreamlike and the atmosphere so engrossing. My only complaint is the slow pacing. I wish more would have happened plot wise, but then again this just isn’t that type of story. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to be put in a very detailed world and get to know some damn nice people.
