A little disappointing

Despite being very well-written I found the novel a frustrating read, largely due to its languid pace and taking far too long to broach the contents of the much purported letter. . The denouement feels rushed and unconvincing and whilst I appreciate that love comes in many forms and maintaining a constant friendship with one’s partner is pivotal, individuals also change, mature and their paths diverge and they are often unrecognisable as the children they were. Undoubtedly well-plotted, Holly Seddon’s conversational narrative charting Kate and Paul’s journey is admittedly gloriously readable and full of genuine insight and I have every intention of reading her future efforts. I loved it in a way I love ever novel, but I don't think it's very memorable!
