As expected, I loved this book! I really enjoy the writing style. The plot moves quickly without feeling rushed. The characters are unique, memorable, flawed, and realistic. I loved the historically accurate glimpse into history the author provided. I was instantly hooked into the story and enjoyed every single moment of my journey.
