The Shadow Land by Elizabeth Kostova
2.0

This book has been on my shelf for 2 years and I have looked forward to reading it with excitement. I love historical mystery. The premise is so interesting and full of potential. I am highly disappointed in the execution unfortunately. Description overwhelmed the almost 500 pages. The parts that were heart wrenching were ruined by this, for me at least.
