i have not read a lot of historical fiction but i LOVED this book. i enjoy reading about the late 60s-early 70s so this was right up my alley. i love books where a bunch of different characters' stories intertwine in a unique way, and i really liked this one.

This was very close to a 5 for me, 4.75 stars. Could have been a bit shorter but it was multi pov. Would have been a full five without Blair’s pov, she was a bit boring.
