Inamorata by Megan Chance
4.0

Inamorata is another title I got through the Amazon First program. One of the benefits of this program is that it has compelled me to try books I otherwise would never have picked up. Inamorata is certainly a book that would never have been on my radar and I am definitely glad that it crossed my path.

Although it was labeled as "Historical Fiction," it is more of a fantasy story. It is set in Venice in the 1870s, but deals with fantastical elements, predominantly demons. Venice is vividly described and the plot is a real page turner, but what won me over were the interesting and unique characters. Despite the other worldly elements, Inamorata succeeds in making the characters' dilemma feel real.
