After trying for a little over a month, and only getting a little over a hundred pages into this, I'm afraid I have to mark this as a DNF for now. Which is disappointing since Bick is one of my faves and I've loved pretty much every book I've read by her. Unfortunately, I was unable to attach myself to this title, often finding myself confused by the story and characters. My e-galley is also expiring in two days and I just don't see myself reading four hundred pages by then. I think this is more for a physical copy for me personally--and I will likely try again later when I do have more time to read at a steady pace. The storyline is intriguing and fresh with unusual descriptions (sometimes creepy)... was hoping to see some background information or something to explain it a bit better maybe. I'm not sure. Haha. Not terrible, but currently a DNF.
