3.5/5 really!
“Things will never be as good as we hoped or as bad as we feared.”
“Our beginnings shape us and must be faced.”
It was all so underwhelming. So ambitious though and I commend the author for that. Lots to weave through but as the story progressed and the author introduced many more characters and world events, I became more enamored with the author’s ability to explain historical significance and weave the characters’ development around the complicated incidents shaping their lives. It was genius to have so many characters’ struggles reflecting those of their greater world. When you are ready for something that is riveting but a lot to chew at times, pick this one up. GREAT as an audiobook by the way.
