This was great !! The characters were easy to connect with, their intertwining narratives were interesting and unique. However. This did not need to be this long; sometimes it felt like the story dragged on unnecessarily instead of focusing on underdeveloped points in the story. The reverse chronological structure was super cool; it changed the meanings of the words and interactions from earlier on in the book, but the jump from a year to a time three years previous sometimes left me wanting for a smoother transition.
