Nuns are having their moment and I am HERE FOR IT. I’ll read a thousand books about nuns. This was perfect, beautifully written and filled with constant suspense and plot twists. This is historical fiction as I love to read it - immaculately researched, with characters that feel alive and who I care about, and with just a touch of mysticism. Oh and also queer elements. I adore!
