I find it hard to narrow down my thoughts on this book. After pondering on it a day I still just felt okay about it. Some things that didn’t do it for me was that it was VERY long and sometimes felt repetitive. ALSO, to read this entire book and for that ending 😳 it didn’t really seal the deal for me. I didn’t really care for the characters, so what really drove my interest of this book was the plot mostly. 

What I did really enjoy was the writing, it was absolutely beautiful. I also liked reading about the different time periods and how the main character Sabine lived through sooo many! Which is why I’m torn, because getting to read across 500 years was interesting but then also made it too long and drag! Agh! 🙃🙃 

All in all, I enjoyed it 😊

good, fresh, interesting. i think the pacing was a little off but that could also just be a product of three heavy points of view. i don’t know. really good but not great for me.
