5.0

 Thank you to NetGalley and Wednesday Books for the eARC of What the River Knows by Isabel Ibañez. All opinions are my own. 

YOU NEED TO READ THIS BOOK! 

This is a historical fiction book with magical elements sprinkled throughout. The fascinating world of 1800s Egypt made me so excited to read this book and kept my interested throughout the whole story. 

I also loved the bits of forbidden romance and can’t wait to see where that goes in book two. 

After finishing the ARC of this book, I immediately pre-ordered a copy for myself because I know I’ll definitely re-read it before book two comes out next year. 

One thing I really liked about this book was all of the plot twists and that I never knew who I could trust. It kept me on my toes and made me want to stay up late reading. 

Overall, I would recommend this book to anyone that likes magical stories, ancient Egypt, and forbidden romances.
