I’m pretty sure that my reaction upon completing a book isn’t supposed to be “so what was the point/ what the fuck did I just read?” I don’t think every book needs to have a deeper message (which this one kind of did, but it was a bit cliche, hence the “what’s the point”) or even a super exciting plot as long as I feel entertained. Unfortunately, the novel ran out of steam for me about halfway through, which is really unfortunate because I loved The Thirteenth Tale by the same author.
