A fun interlude between heavy books
slow-paced
The first 280 pages were hard work, they could have been condensed into 100. It got better from there but I was over it by then. I read 4 other books in between
A great concept but the inconsistent styles made it a hard read. Some were great, some were dreadful. I read it over three weeks as a series of short stories. The ending was poinient and the best bit

Gripping read from start to finish. I couldn't put it down. It builds and builds to its heart stopping conclusion.

My first romance read. Lovely characters descriptions but all a bit predictable
