Oh my gosh this might be one of my favorite books I've read this year. Insanely beautiful and gorgeous writing! I love historical fiction AND fantasy so this book was a dream for me to read. All the characters were real and fleshed out, and Luzia was absolutely brilliant. I could tell how much work the author put into research to make this accurate to the time and to make her characters fit into the story. Incredible love story as well! I recommend this book a thousand times over. A MUST READ!!
