Love the imagery, but the writing suffers from hand holding and too many explanations doing telling instead of showing. It reads in a fifth grade level at times because of this.

Reads at a fifth grade level at times due to hand holding and explanations. Telling instead of showing. Liking the imagery though.

So far a hard read because there’s a bunch of nothingness going on and endless descriptions of irrelevant subjects. I do really enjoy the writing and want to enjoy the book but the narrator is unlikable for me; long winded and easily frazzled, the book goes on endless rambles because of this.
