I'm not in love with this book, but I don't hate it either.  It was intriguing to learn how the bridge was born to life and what Emily went through to get it done, especially in the 1800s.

PT Barnum is in the book, too, lol. It was funny to see him feed Emily and her son peanuts because they were only animal feed for elephants. 
I didn't care for Emily and PTs love for one another. I knkw she li wd her husband and he her but their love was a different kind and I felt like she really wasnt there fir her chuld either.  

I did not really like or hate any of the characters. 

I'm just not a fan of this type of writing; historical fiction. However, the author did a good job with the story and her research.
