Overwrought, didn't quite land for me

I can see why for many this is a beloved book, but it didn't capture me in the same way.

The writing style often felt plodding and overwrought, instead of evocative and touching. And this novel is all scene and style and very little story, so there was not very much else to go on.

I found myself wishing this had been a short story instead of a novel.
