Thank youuu to Netgalley & Indigo for the ARC.
I'm kinda...hunting for the right words here. This wasn't a bad book by any means but I had the bare minimum passion for it the entire time. The words are beautiful, the meaning and payoff are satisfying, the little town is homey and comfortable. And yet it didn't really have any bite or charisma. It's a dreamy, lofty little read. So like, not bad, but not my taste - it maybe deserves more like 4 stars but 4 doesn't reflect my enjoyment or engagement.
Still hunting for a phrase or two. Nothing really stuck with me. Oh, man. Everything was,,,just enough. And I feel soooo bad saying it, I don't know. It's definitely an important book and an impactful book but it didn't have the right tools to really get into my brain.
A lot of ratings are similar to mine and yet everyone mostly summarizes the plot and compliments it in their review. Please are we all at a loss for what exactly works well and what doesn't?! I felt lost in it, but like, a comfortable lost, you know? I can't go on nitpicking because everything worth nitpicking just floated by me because of the style.
Anyhow...it's a rainy day read, but you've likely already read it before.… (more)
