I disagree with everyone who says this writing style is lyrical and beautiful. I personally found the book overwritten and the style was distracting. I pushed through because I was interested and had a good enough time. There was quite a bit of repetition of super odd phrases (ex: pebbled skin, organ in my chest) that, again, was incredibly distracting. Despite that, I did find myself enjoying the story and wanting to read more. It's no more than what I expected it to be, and that's okay. I just hope the second book is edited more thoroughly and the MC has some distinct character growth. I can't handle the same amount of “everyone I love dies so I can't have love” inner monologue as was in this book.
