Misrecognition

I wonder if I would have liked this more had I read it at a different time. I wove back and forth between finding it utterly beautiful and utterly boring. Elsa was an intriguing character to me, but at times I felt like I didn't know her at all. I did think that Newbound portrayed Elsa's experiences on the periphery of life very well. As someone stuck in their small hometown after tragedy, I had hoped I'd connect with this more, but it just didn't work very well for me.
