i cannot lie i thought i was going to love this book so much but i do think it fell a bit short for me. there were days when i simply could not get one page. i do think that some of the squire and scion got a little lost on me and i just couldn’t get into it in that respect. 

the plot tho, the grief, the history was 5 stars. the grief that bree feels is so beautifully and tragically depicted. to lose one’s mother is always going to be the loss of a life time, but to lose a mother so young is tragic.

the history MWAH oh my god. i am a big historical fiction girl and the memory walks and the looking back on memories that took place in plantations were beyond my wildest dreams. the imagery was astounding and i was throughly impressed from start to finish. 

the writing was flawless, genuinely. i just don’t think im a king arthur girl! 

also i said this in my reading journal but this little love triangle…..can bree and up with sel?! like fine there i said it!!!!! loving the fact that their moms were friends


i will def read the second book and the third one when it comes out but i will be taking a break for a bit.
