3.0

I had high hopes for this as I thought the inclusion of Astronomy in a classic romance was very unique and really interested me. I quite enjoyed the first portion of Two on a Tower, however as the story progressed I found I was not overly attached to the characters and at times they were a bit melodramatic. The ending was unexpected but after some thought, just underwhelming.
