Beautiful and haunting
I really enjoyed the writing style of this book. It was easy to follow and get sucked into the plot that I read way more than I thought I did in each sitting.
There are two main perspectives, of Chrissie and Fred, and they alternate through times of when the first met and their lives later.
My favourite part of the story was the time spent on the island. I loved the descriptions of where and how they lived. It felt so real and I think that's what made this story so powerful. The vivid and haunting moments, the difficult lifestyle, and daily routines made the story feel so alive and you can picture how they felt.
Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the book and would definitely recommend it, but I would have liked the characters to have more interactions and communicate more. It was a bit frustrating how much they were just keeping to themselves.
