The first sections are full of breathtaking imagery and compact description and fully pulled me in. The first half kept my interest even as the power of the language waned. But the second half became a slog, filled with obvious plot twists and a lack of passion. Left me wishing I'd stopped after Green's first fully realized memories.

I very much enjoyed this book and would eagerly read a sequel. The protagonist is intriguing and the world is full of nuance.
