I was ready to like the book from the beginning but it lost its momentum in the middle straight toward the end, where it wrapped up in a tidy few pages. I found it a frustrating end for an invested reader.

There were some small notes scribbled on the last page of my copy from its previous owner which I will quote here as part of my ditto: "When I was small, skinned my knees, and they were red and raw and seeping blood, and sand got in the wound, or medicine was applied to it. Reading this book is like a sore throat."
