As someone with dyslexia who definitely enjoys indulging in an easy read, this was a huge challenge for me to read. After a few chapters in, I very nearly gave up, however, I persevered and I'm so glad I did! This book is gripping, frustrating and a very enjoyable read. I am fascinated by this time period and actually wrote a poem inspired by the book!

Who in the name of Black Phillip is recording this novel as slow paced?

Beautifully written, tragically, horrifyingly beautiful.
