Its narrative gracefully balances exposition with description, and in-scene development.Ĭharacter Development: The author does a remarkable job of establishing characters who are dynamic, multi-layered personalities who continue to evolve and grow through the novel. Originality: Branham's polished and genuine story does not noticeably echo other works of fiction. There are occasional inconsistencies with tenses and instances of repetition, leading to minor confusion and needless overcomplexity, but overall, the work is refreshing and eminently readable. Prose: The prose here is pleasant to read, even, and almost whimsical in its flow. The author makes it clear: love is not perfect, but that's okay. However, this is dwarfed by the masterful writing and delivery of a topic that is often infantilized. Branham's story is relatable, simple, and at times it feels drawn out.
