adventurous challenging dark emotional informative mysterious reflective sad slow-paced

3.0

I thought I was going to be really interested in this book, but the more I read, the more I wondered why. It was certainly informative and educational, and I’ve definitely learned a lot. However, there were too many blanks filled in by her perspective and expertise. I understand that often had to happen when interpreting history. The issue for me was that it was sometimes hard to distinguish between supposition and recreated facts.
