NGL the first part of the book all I could think about was how much of a sociopath Alfred was, but everything seemed to kind of come together with him. Honestly I could have done without his perspective and been happy.

I really didn't enjoy the love interest between Joana and Florian. Seeing how everything ended up I can see why it was necessary. They seemed to have more of a mother/child relationship until they got on the boat where things just went from 0-100 quickly. I do think them all ending up together in the end was a nice touch though and I can't think of a better alternative.

Emilia.... Oh my Emilia. Broke my little heart to read the letter. I wish I knew more about that. I feel like things ended abruptly and I had a hard time digesting that she was gone especially after her chapter.
