I read this book in one sitting two years ago and enjoyed it so much, I bought it. Now I’m judging my past self.

The book has an interesting premise, with multiple POVs told from the different times in history the two main characters are together. There are notes, screenshots and maps scattered throughout the book to help the story along and I enjoyed that aspect a lot! 

However, I found myself a bit disoriented from all the time POV jumps and there was even a section of the book where I was completely lost 🗿 It made sense two years ago, why can’t I understand it now 😭

Overall, a unique read in which the historical settings were more interesting than the romance 🙂
