I thought the book was gonna be more feel-good. At the end it didn't feel like much was resolved except for the couple's story line. Overall I just felt very bored

This is the 3rd in a series even though it's not advertised anywhere on the cover - this made it difficult to get into and difficult to keep track of the names. Some good story telling though, though it can get very graphic.

This book was devastating, but it is a gorgeous read. Maybe take heed if you have a queasy stomach.
