A review by aellereads
Out Front the Following Sea by Leah Angstman
Did not finish book.
Out Front the Following Sea has a beautiful premise, and with all the five-star ratings, I thought I would have loved this story.
Unfortunately, this epic was not for me and I had to DNF this book. Great work and research have been put into this novel: the historical details and vivid descriptions speak for themselves. But I could not connect with the characters nor the writing - a blend of modern and old-English, and French (the grammar errors threw me off multiple times).
I encourage everyone interested in this novel to read other reviews and wish them an enjoyable reading time if they do decide to pick it up.
*I would like to thank NetGalley for giving me a free copy in exchange for my honest review.
