Enjoyable enough, but not sure it will stick with me. I liked it a little more after discussing it with my book club. 3.5 stars.

I really enjoyed this book. I vacillated between feeling so sorry for Victoria and really wanting to shake her. What a wistful, melancholy story.

A fast and wrenching read. Perfectly balances the dark and the light.
