I'm not really sure what I was expecting out of this book. 
 The book takes an heavy, emotional toll and Suzuka's descriptive writing lets you feel the weight of the responsibility Lochan and Maya share. You could feel their lives day in and day out and I felt exhausted alongside them. However, there were times I felt myself skimming through long, descriptive paragraphs to get back to the action. 
 While some part of me can understand their love for each other, another part of me wonders how possible an attraction like this is. These are siblings who grew up with each other and are practically raising a family together. I can see how a strong bond would form, but psychologically speaking, would that lead to sexual attraction down the road? Whenever I hear of incest, it's almost always of relatives who were separated and met again in adulthood. 
 The book is a slow burn leading up to an ending you know will incinerate the two characters. Definitely something for more mature audiences. It was beautifully written, but I can't say I'll be picking it up again anytime soon.
