2 1/2ish? 
 This one kind of felt like a return to the 1st. Around page 200 I was like, "Oh. Action. That's what we've been missing. Glad we've got some stuff going on now." It just seemed to drag a bit. I understand and respect the use of poetic language. But I don't think angst should be a replacement for action. Then, the ending felt rushed for no reason. After all, there was space to explore it more if we cut out some of the Sam/Grace angst. We get it. They are in love and they miss each other. But some of that also slightly undermines what is set up to be the maturity of their relationship. For the most part, I don't mind the ultimate ending. I just wish it hadn't seemed as rushed.
