This is a SLOW read. That’s not necessarily a bad thing. I would compare it to books by Shannon Hale like Goose Girl and Book of a Thousand Days. I don’t  why but that’s the vibe this book was giving me.

There were parts that I definitely liked but I think the book ran a bit too long in some places. I really only cared about Priya and Malini and I wished there was more about them. I was also rooting for this couple but there were times where I felt like the chemistry wasn’t right or things felt forced. 

I might not be in the right head space for this book. I really wanted to like it but it just didn’t click for me unfortunately.
