angelahiu 's review for:
What the River Knows
by Isabel Ibañez
2025 I may actually review books.
This book should really be 2.5 stars. Meh plot/character and meh writing (not implying I could do better). The characters needed clearer motivations for their actions. I understand that to keep you guessing the author held back most of the character histories, but I thought it was a cheap plot device. The writing is repetitive.
If you want a great Victorian Egyptian romp, stick with Amelia Peabody.
