I don't often read historical fiction but I really enjoyed reading this one. I think it handled the weight of it's topics/contents really well. I personally liked having an entire cast of characters and reading about all of them at different times and seeing how their stories interacted with one another, especially with all of this happening at such a crucial time in history. I have some nitpicky thoughts about pacing, but I loved this book overall!
