An interesting story but I felt like I was drowning in overly descriptive words about mundane things like details of a house or car or physical descriptions of the characters and of course detailed descriptions of their surroundings. Most of the time these details were not needed. It felt like filler words meant to simulate substance. Lots of those "words" were repeated in the same phrases multiple times. I found myself skipping lots of sections trying to find where the actual story continued. I did like the premise of the book but it took too long to get anywhere and then it ends abruptly. I'd like to know what happens next but not sure I want to endure same experience with the next book(s). I did like how the character Alexandra was depicted, she made me laugh.
