I don’t think I was quite as impressed by this as many of our friends were, but I can’t wait to know what you think.

It's interesting how addiction is only indirectly brought into the story, for the most part, or leaves the lion's share of the narrative to collateral damage anyway.
I felt like I was getting to know the least interesting part of the story the whole time, and that I was stuck with that disadvantageous point of view right until the end.

I'm actually enjoying the woman's reflections and the intimacy captured, she's less of a goose than she thinks, her doubts are beautifully rendered, her joys as well, and the general tone is lighter than one would expect. I mean, for the most part. I can see how expectations may differ though. :)
