I love how the story goes along smoothly and realistically for the characters. There weren't any moments in my opinion that seemed to drag on or be to slow pace. The entire story is from Aristotle's pov so we get to see the genuine reaction to incidents that happen around him as well as of his realization about himself at the same time he does even though as the reader you suspect it after a few interactions between the two main characters.
