The pacing felt disjointed, as though the author was attempting to race through Beth's history, and I felt as though the events that were meant to be significant or emotional (such as the death of her parents) were not treated with the appropriate gravitas.
However, you addressed this in your review and the promise of deepest longing and heart-rending angst later in the plot sound wonderfully appealing. I was rather reluctant to purchase the book in its entirety but the reviewer's praise had made me reconsider. I feel as though I might add it to me reading list for an Autumn evening of turmoil and love.
