Without spoiling: what happened to Eli in the lab… made my skin crawl and stomach twist.
It ended on some loose ends and if she finished writing here, I’d understand but at the same time I’d hope some of those ties were pulled together in a 3rd book.

The story was beautifully crafted. It created lot’s of loose threads, sending you into different times and to different characters. Slowly the story comes together. It should be complicated. It should have confused me. But somehow the complexities of the story were threaded together so elegantly, it barely was any effort.
I like how at first you don’t even know what the plot of the book will be and it’s just about creating the story for these characters.
Loved June as an addition to the story. However, I wasn’t a fan of Marcella. I didn’t like reading from her perspective and had to drag myself through those bits. She just falls flat in contrast to the other amazing characters.
I wished for more Eli and Victor together. I know logically, that would’ve been really difficult to do. But those two together are so much fun to read.
Overall a really great book. Beautifully written, wonderful characters and interesting story.
