Wow, there's a lot of characters in this one.  I definitely needed to start this one reading in print to get the characters straight in my head but once I started reading it wasn't hard to do. There were a few times I had to flip back to re-read a section but the chapters are pretty short and it just took a glance through to reacquaint myself. It was quite masterful how all the connections between the characters came together in the end.  Did we need ALL the characters? Not sure we did but it did give a really great job of taking us from the 1850s to present day (2019) which is not an easy task!  Perfect title for this one. The story had me engaged the whole time and there were times I did not want to put the book down.  I love that feeling!  Once I kinda got a sense of the characters, I alternated with audio and print and the audiobook narration was great.
