Brilliantly written. Loved the richness of this book, it’s hard to put down. Devoured it.

Not bad, not great. Halfway through this read it started becoming rather dull. Beautifully told at times, but if ten treacle and overwrought. A good idea but not that moving. Could have been better. It rushes through time, and I mean really rushes, and you have no clue along the way how Marie accomplished all she did. Makes little sense. Not really recommended.

Magic. Incendiary.

An eloquent tale of life and loss. A stunning assemblage of words and a beautiful lyric brought forth in the use of the language.

I’m left with tears. For here in lies the whole vision for humanity. It is holy most holy, the Word made flesh.

Dull. Sentences structure was beautiful at times. Just no real action at all. No real story, just not that interesting

Beautifully Written Prose for Lacking Plot. I have to admit that I was really let down on this one. With such wonderful high praise publicly before it's release, I was thinking this was going to be a book that I was going to really latch onto. I am unfortunately pretty deeply disappointed with this one. Although the book does have its moments, there are far too many intricate passages with language that is so heightened with is overtly obscure words that there were moments I would sometimes have to go back and reread three pages of dialogue in order to understand what the one passage had actually meant. From there, I would become distracted, and have to reread it again. I couldn't help but wonder if this was the authors attempt at showing off her vast vocabulary for that reason. Groff I believe gets carried away in her own writing, so much though that it distracts away from the story. I almost believe it was a distraction for how little story there actually was. If there was a lack of verbosity this book likely could have been told in approximately 50 pages. If you are an absolute literature nut, this could be for you. For the common person, you might want to skip this one.

Visions. Great book! Only wish actual dialogue had been used, instead of summaries of what was said.

A struggle to finish. I found myself skipping over sentences that made no sense, unfamiliar words, and not caring about a world I could barely visualize even after reading the entire book.

Inspiring writing and content.. Inspiring

The worst Lauren Groff book I’ve read. I am a fan of Lauren Groff and so bought this book based on my earlier readings of her work. Matrix s banal and poorly written and, I guess, an homage to a fictional/actual abbess, Marie. The story is so over the top as to be a caricature of convent life - the nuns are drawn as 1 dimensional characters who somehow accomplish the impossible. It’s just ridiculous.
