I guess the aim was to make this an intense love story, but really, it's just too "intense". Too much "I'm crying I love you so much", You-are-my-destiny, I-will-wait-for-you-forever-and-be-celibate kind of love. It was too much for me. I wanted to say: get real, get a grip or something. I did not enjoy it, but the plot was good enough to make me read it.
