I agree with the other review. It felt a bit aimless. I started to get it mid-book, but I personally feel it shouldn't take so long for the pattern to emerge, especially when the dialog, while pretty & poetic, does not bring clarity as you go along. I struggled to finish this as my friend read it at the same time. While it wasn't a "slow" read, I found myself just not wanting to go back to it. It's like that point of the night where you realize you drank a bit too much & can't get steady footing, only to fall asleep and be confused when you are waking up.
