I was bored by a majority of this book. I also felt like the truth was obvious throughout the majority of the book, and the lack of a real resolution bothered me.

There are seemingly zero consequences for anyone in the book.

I feel awful for all of the children in the book having parents who are so incredibly selfish and reckless.

This book could've been fifty pages shorter if it wasn't so incredibly repetitive. While I understand what the author was going for, I found Clara's descent into mania incredibly boring. Again, it was obvious what was happening with her from the start, but it took over 300 pages to get from A to Z.

None of the reveals were surprising, and the characters lacked depth.

I skimmed the last third of the book because I just needed to get it finished.
