I forced myself to finish this, as it got such great reviews. But I hated the layout (some "chapters" were less than one full page, and hated that the author never used quotation marks to indicate speech. I got used to it eventually, but as an editor, it made me crazy. The story was okay. I wouldn't recommend it.
