Unfortunately, this one was a miss for me. I enjoyed the story, I wanted to connect so much to the characters, but that part kept losing me. I felt as though there was an imbalance of telling vs. show and always felt somewhat at a distance from everything going down. I objectively enjoyed the twists and turns and how everything ended - but it was like looking at a photograph that got left out in the sun. The picture's intention is still on the page, but the colours are blanched and the edges are blurry.
