I have been reading this book on and off, whenever I had the time for a few pages. Maybe that was the reason why I could never connect with with story. I kept mixing up the names and the characters felt distant. Violet was an interesting girl. Her mother was seriously driving me furious, she was a horrible person. The writing style was beautiful and the story kind of interesting though, a few aspects that kept me reading. The atmosphere in the book was pretty dark and creepy. A good read for the dark winter time.
