You have so many elements you need to consider and it takes a while. Books like this you need to sit and stew in the information you were given. Let's start with the one who created this whole thing Rufus he was the epitome of a pathetic human. I could go into more but that would just be me ranting. Then we talk about Dana. I loved her strength and how she even understood herself but her flaw was sometimes not giving the equal treatment to her husband. For example, him coming back after 5 years and then thinking all of a sudden he isn't going to be the same person and that he isn't adjusting like he should, while also talking about how she needed to adjust? Like give the man some damn time. .This part is MY opinion if you don't like it you can skip your lil ass right on:I found it flat and though she told us the emotions I didn't feel Octavia's. Not saying she didn't put any of that into her book but for me I just wasn't receiving it. I am more of an angst woman so reading something that deals with such topics I want to feel it on my level. BUT that doesn't mean I think she SHOULD have written it like that. I think she wrote it how she wanted to and if she is happy with the book then so am I.
