Overall, a good book. I struggled with the transitions as Nannerl aged, so I had to go back and reread some parts to understand what was happening. In the beginning of the novel the author did transitions very well. As the reader, you could understand present tense, and then when she switched into Nannerl's past it seemed to flow seamlessly. Further on into the novel, it's suddenly 10 years later and you're looking around like, "oh- what happened?"
