This book took a while to pick up steam for me, but in the final quarter of the novel I got more invested. I recognize that might be because of my Western assumptions about plotting and timing/structure for a novel. That being said, I found our 2 female protagonists compelling characters. It was heartbreaking to see them both grapple with absent fathers and try to craft an identity for themselves independently of their elders while grieving.

I liked it okay, and it seemed like a good story, but it was a little confusing and I just didn’t like it enough to keep reading. I would consider trying again.
