This book was a little overhyped in my opinion. I was engaged with the 1919 timeline and very uninterested in the 1966 portion of the book. It felt like it took a while for the story to really get going and then I wasn’t really invested until nearly the end. I don’t regret reading this book, but wouldn’t suggest it to my friends.
