I wasn't sure how I was going to rate this book, to be honest. I really wanted this to be a 5-star read but in the end, I settled on 4-stars. On one hand, it is a beautifully written book. V.E. Schwab has a wonderful, lyrical style that grabbed me instantly. I found myself writing down quotes from the book (I didn't put them on my GR b/c I thought some of them might be too spoiler-ish). And I absolutely loved the premise. Every time I picked it up I was immediately engrossed, but the strange thi ...more

Premise super interesting, writing excellent. This woman lived 300 years, and we barely got a taste of her view on history. I liked it, but it left me wanting.
