  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? No

4.5

Really solid and well-researched historical fiction, the story felt rich and illustrative. It was slow, but it felt like it should be, so I had no issues with the pacing. The characters and their interactions felt so realistic and tangible. Overall a super immersive and wonderful read.
