The Last Train to Key West by Chanel Cleeton

3.0

---

Really wanted to love this one, but it didn’t do it for me. The first two books by Chanel Cleeton about the Perez sisters strike a perfect balance of romance and historical fiction. This one...not so much. It centers on the (real) great hurricane of 1935, but the descriptions felt surface level, as did the character development. There are three main women in this story, and I didn’t feel like I got to know any of them. A bit of a bummer for me as I loved her other books, but if there is another in the series I will definitely pick it up and hope for a bit more depth to the setting and characters!
