I was really excited to read this book, so I had high hopes for it, while it wasn’t exactly what I expected, it was not a bad read.
I don’t particularly enjoyed the “present” story, but I enjoyed the eighteenth century one.
Overall, it’s a book with a great concept and it had some plot twists that surprised me
