It was somewhat of a difficult concept because at some points it was very much a realistic fiction book and then BAM fantasy and magic.

1. I still like Hugo, I always thought he had good intentions with Miranda... As for the rest of the characters they are just okay. Miranda is still manic and has concerning behavior. I was confused about basically the last couple of chapters, I don't understand the significance of any of it, but it's possible that it is very Shakespeare rooted and I don't know those allusions so I miss it.
2. I am unsure, I haven't read enough Shakespeare to know... and I am not exactly keen on reading them lol.
3. I think Miranda learned something, I oddly think Ellie learned something?? Or maybe Ellie realized her potential and decided to come out of her shell. It is hard to know if Mark learned anything, because after he got hurt we never heard from him again... he was barely mentioned.
4. I think it's a lot of a little mixed in. All is well in Miranda's eyes, or things all seem to fall into place for her, but what about everyone else? Why does she decide to get the golden remedy again? And does the other woman at the bar signify anything?
5. I have no clue... I didn't love this novel... I would give it 3/5 stars.
