It hurts my heart to say it, but boy this book dragged for me. Even though I identify with much of Diana‘s dilemma, I just could not get into it. And had a hard time staying with it. It felt simultaneously convoluted and like nothing was happening. Fingers crossed that things pick up in the next one.
