Good story and pleasant read, but I wasn't really taken by the writing.

Photojournalist and many other things in -ist.
I read a lot of SFF, obscure LGBT, travel, photography theory and women authors, in French and English.

It's a bit of a disappointment that, yet again, the reader is left to try to make sense of the characters, plot and wtf is going on. I wish I didn't have to go on forums to find out important information that was only very, very slightly hinted at in the book. It's one thing to want revelations and plot-twists and ah-ah-moments, it's another to leave the reader completely in the fog for 500 pages. If the writing wasn't that good and the characters that compelling, I would've left it a while ago.
