I didn’t think this book was bad. I actually overall enjoyed it. I did feel like the story was a bit slow and sometimes difficult to follow. I felt like sometimes extra information was added when it wasn’t necessarily needed. Making the story slower or longer.

I loved Henry. My heart ached for him and I just wanted to hold him and tell him everything would be okay. Addie had some character development.
it’s hard when you’ve lived 300 years and everyone forgets you. Not to mention she goes through developments and setbacks throughout that time
.

Overall it was a good book but I don’t think I would pick it up again. It was a bit slow and there were some lulls in the pace, but It was emotional and there were lots of great moments.
