it pains me to criticise anything VE schwab writes but like. alice’s chapters are almost unreadable. she’s supposed to be scottish but all her childhood recollections are about “yards” and “baseball bats”… Meanwhile her attempts to make her sound scottish fall kinda flat and feel like an american tourists romanticised version of scotland….. pulls me right out the story :(
