Ugh. This story is painful to read. I really struggled to finish this. It was interesting in the first part only somewhat, but then tetered off. The novel is really really wordy. It has flowery adjectives and is very descriptive in painful detail.

I feel like I’m in the minority when I say I don’t like this book, so don’t let my feelings deter you from reading it. I’m just glad that I can say I read it. Although I don’t understand why the word “love story” is used to describe this book. It’s a pedophilic obsession, not love. When you love someone, you don’t destroy their life.

Another classic book read under my belt.
