The pace was weird; way too slow at times, then sped up way too much. It took me so long to finish this book because parts of it dragged so much. But then I would pick it up and it would move so quickly that I felt like I forget everything that went on beforehand.
The concept of a ghost child living in the enchanted woods was interesting, and I loved the storytelling aspect, though I do wish that had been played up more especially at the ending. I felt like lots of stuff went unexplained, like Chloe's narrator or the Albatross. None of the characters were particularly multi-dimensional, but I enjoyed the story overall.
Overall, a fun change of pace from what I usually read, and I'm giving it higher than I normally might because the concept was so interesting.
