It was a good story. It took a while for me to get into the grove of it, but once it picked up it really picks up

slow-paced

This would’ve been a 3 star book for me if it wasn’t for that bad ass ending 🔥🔥🔥

A solid entry by Silvia Moreno-Garcia, but it is hard not to compare this to her other works that I adore. The three storylines/timelines went well together, but I did not care for the 1934 timeline whatsoever and brought down the book's score for me quite a bit. The storylines in 1908 and 1998 were both intriguing, and kept me listening constantly! Really enjoyed how Moreno-Garcia wove in multiple sub-genres of horror (gothic, dark academia, paranormal) and made an incredible atmosphere!

Compelling story with beautiful writing and strong female protagonists. Everything I’ve come to expect when I read one of Silvia Moreno-Garcia’s books. I enjoyed each of the three POVs but wished that I could have had a book on all of them separately. Though, it was interesting to see how their stories intertwined and formed a the whole picture at the end.
