Title: So-So
Review: Some of this "sparse and elegant prose" was downright melodramatic at times. Lots of telling. Not much showing. I have to say though, I saw it through to the end because a momentum definitely built throughout - I knew "something" was going to happen so that kept me reading. The last three chapters were the best. Overall, I would recommend it, but not highly. The book itself is beautiful: gorgeous cover and color scheme; nice size.
