It was a quick read and I overall enjoyed it, but it just didn't live up to my expectations. I wasn't too surprised or shocked by the ending, though I did enjoy the conflicted feelings towards one of the narrators I had by the ending.

Additionally, while the book sells parallel stories, the unevenness of information provided in the two made it feel more of a single main story with an epilogue (that happened to be told at the same time). If we had been given more information about Ella, the future narrator, she would have had more life as a character, and may have made the ending stronger as well.
