challenging emotional informative slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.75

A solid 3.75 for me, this was a very well-structured story and, although it contained quite a lot of history that I was unfamiliar with, it was easy to follow. The not-quite-four-star review comes from the almost too simplistic way the story was told. It seemed a bit "easy" in terms of the way everything happened and wrapped up. While a lot happened, it felt like a lot was not happening at the same time. I feel like it was missing a tiny bit of something, but I can't quite put my finger on what it was. Overall, though, I thoroughly enjoyed it and would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys historical fiction.
