Really liked this for the most part. It's beautifully written and I thought she did a wonderful job of portraying how a tragic event affects our everyday lives.

I didn't like the parts with the cathedral and Adam's father so much. Although the parts with his father were interesting in places, I thought that the book returned to him and to the cathedral a bit too much. I also found Adam and Emma's relationship extremely frustrating;

they clearly have some major communication issues (e.g., Adam resenting how much time Emma spends on her phone but never says) and towards the end of the book it seemed like they were supposedly getting "better", although they hadn't actually done anything that might lead to this aside from having sex.
