This book has too much going on while somehow still being boring. It feels like a short story stretched into a novel, and it shows.

The fantasy elements were underwhelming. However, the writing itself was exceptional. The ending was confusing and lacked sufficient explanation—I still don’t understand why Marsha had to

The story delivered on its promise of being a tragedy, living up to the Romeo and Juliet inspiration.

These two got the short end of the stick. Their stories broke my heart with the sacrifices they had to make for the sake of their families.
