This is the second novella I've read in the last two weeks and I must say: still not a fan of the concept. I mean, if the whole thing is only 100 pages long, there's not much room for character development and I feel the characters are less fleshed out in general. However, I did enjoy this novella. It was short, but sweet, even though I didn't really connect to the characters. I felt Margaret's brother was a cardboard, he served his purpose and that was really all there was to it.
I did like Margaret and Rhys, but I feel that if this had been a regular novel, I would have liked it a lot better, because now everything happened so fast, it was a bit unbelievable at times. Rhys was a really good hero though and I would have liked to spend more time with him.
But: I liked it, though I don't think I'll be reading many novella's in the future, it's just not really my thing.
My rating: 3 stars
