The character development & relationships were beautifully done and made this worth reading. Ulysses and Evelyn will stay with me. But the story took too long to draw me in, and the lack of quotation marks around dialogue drove me crazy! I had to work much too hard to determine dialogue vs internal thoughts and who to attribute it to. If it was an artistic choice, I fail to see where it added. This was my October #Bookspin. @TheAromaofBooks
