For the longest time, I thought a well-planned murder scheme could revive any plot… this book has proven otherwise. But, I’m too far in to feel like marking this as a DNF.

It’s incredible how a little interpersonal drama and antique forgery can liven up a plot! Still feeling like this is a little unnecessarily drawn out though…

As much as I hate to admit it, the payoff for the slow pacing seems to be the dedication to character development and growth. Something tells me we’re supposed to fall in love with these characters just in time to watch something horrible and gut-wrenching happen to them…

And we’re apparently launching into the heavy-handed, traumatic scenes quite early in this one. I guess you could say it’s as advertised?

The literary fiction slow-burn is already setting in, and this is definitely feeling outside of my comfort zone.
