Maybe this wasn’t the right book to read now, for my own mental health.
Funny (and I mean not funny at all) to see that things haven’t changed that much since 1500.

medium-paced
This was so much better than Hamnet but I can’t say I loved this. Maybe historical fiction isn’t for me because I felt like so much of the story got bogged down by the need to give so much context and detail
