Slow, uneventful boring
I didn’t like this story, I didn’t like the narration. It was too slow, the characters were not well developed. The only thing was the trail, I liked that, and even that was not well described.
Narration felt like the narrator thought like me that it is a boring story, her monotone voice didn’t help the story at all

Excellent Story
I loved this book. The struggles with insecurities from both main characters, envoke emotions of all types while listening/reading. The sometimes selfish and inconsiderate ways of one in particular had me wanting to shake her.! In one particular part of the story I actually went cold with emotion, but I won’t spoil the story as to why! Highly recommend this book
