Writing is a slog to get through. I haven't finished the book but this might be one of five (out of thousands) books I've ever DNF'd. The sentences are very flowery- not too bad when sporadically thrown in but when it's paragraph after paragraph it's a little grating. There is a lot of "tell, not show" in this book but the most grievous of writing mistakes is that fact that something we've just read is repeated to us all the time. For example, early in the book the heroine says to the hero: "I'm sorry...I didn't...that is to say..." and the hero thinks "her words came out in short, unformed sentences with a raspy quality" (not exact words but you get the gist). It's like yeah, man, I was there too. Definitely notices that she didn't say fully formed sentences judging by the several ellipses and the fact that I just read it. I really didn't need it explained to me. The writer seems more focused on writing interesting sentences rather than painting the world and making it engrossing. The book feels very much like "floating head syndrome" but bloated with pompous, omniscient sentences and the "telling" style of story writing. The dialogue is ridiculous and felt like it had never been repeated aloud and/or remained unedited. Within the first few chapters, a conversation starts out on topic A before randomly shifting to topic B before they were like 'oh right, back to topic A'. LITERALLY. I'm too lazy to find it but one of them was like "silly me, we stopping talking about topic A!" While this can be done believably, it was not in this instance. It felt like the conversation was gutted open, stuffed with a second conversation, and then sewn back together in a weird turducken of dialogue. The writing style is so difficult to get through, it completely eclipses the story. It feels like you are being told what happens rather than being immersed in the action. If you've ever read old-style fairytales, that's the way this writing style comes across. Super disappointed because it sounded like a cool topic. I've gotten about 100 pages in and will try to keep slogging but a good 30-40 pages could have been cut without losing the thread of the story and would have made it a tighter, better read

Not too bad. This one was actually pretty good! I wanted to smack George. Which is a good thing - It made becoming emotionally vested in the characters easy and it made the plot that much better. I enjoyed the story and it was a perfect read for this dreary, rainy day.

Loved!. I loved this book! Great characters! Meg and the aunts !!! I couldn’t put this down!
