So let's talk about wilder girls!
It was a book, amazingly put together and yet not quite up to my expectations. Maybe more than half of it was really slow for me. I didn't like how NOTHING significant was happening. The back stories and the depth were somwhow lacking as well as the relationships. However the story picked up its pace eventually. I enjoyed the Byatt side story a lot. I recommend to people who have patience to get past half of it.
