Author did a great shop treating tarot reading and clairvoyance respectfully, at least from my perspective. Same with Clive, another unique character.

I really liked this book!
It stood on my shelf for over a year but I finally got around to reading it, and I reallllllyy liked it alot!
I really liked that it was set in two years, one in 1973/4 and one 'now'. It kinda felt like Malibu Rising in this way, which I liked alot.
I think some things were pretty predictable like that Vivienne is her mom but then there were also some plottwists
The many side stories were really nice and one was pretty sad.
I really liked the character Clive because he just seems so strange and interesting. I also really like Imelda Burova her relationship with her mom, her dog and her passion. I especially liked how she thought about her parents marriage. It was really nice.
