It was an interesting concept to have time move much more quickly than what I’m normally used to (a whole generation in the span of a few paragraphs). The risk you run with this approach is not allowing the reader to connect with the characters & start getting invested in the story, which is exactly what happened to me. I imagine that the intention was to actually connect with the plants instead of the people, but here too I found simply too little detail to care.
Only made it through the first two chapters. Not recommended.
