A couple on their honeymoon, supposed virgins, and their intimacy exudes boredom rather than passion and excitement. The lovemaking is blah--not that I want to hear more details, but I would like to feel some kind of emotion rather than apathy.

Sex and very little dialogue is interspersed among lengthy narration full of telling rather than showing. After reading the first two chapters, I have a mild interest, but find it difficult to connect with Effie and don't have a sense of what the plot is.
