In the end, I did enjoy the story overall, however, I found it to be just a little too long for me. I struggled through the beginning/middle of the book because it didn't feel like we were moving forward for quite some time. That's also the reason it took me so long to finish the book. Also, I do have to say that I did not really care for Harriet too much until we discovered a little more about her mother's past towards the end. How the story wrapped up was quite interesting but I still wished that I would have cared more about the characters. That is why I was torn between two and three stars for this rating and ended up giving it 2,5 stars (but rounded up for the purpose of this goodreads rating).
