I really struggled to get into this one, but by the end I was fully invested in the outcome.
The first 50ish pages felt like I was was being given an uninvited education in Egyptology, and throughout the book there were sprinklings of this too. But I have always loved the way Jodi Picoult writes and her concepts, so I stuck with it and I'm glad that I did.
Definitely not my favourite of her books, but definitely worth a read if you are a fan of her work (or of Egyptology!).
