I loved the travel through different time periods and events, and inclusion of real historical figures and cultures/mythology. As I creeped towards the end of the book I honestly felt a little bit of panic, because I felt like I just hadn’t gotten to know our main characters enough, despite seeing their experiences throughout centuries. I wish I’d gotten more about the characters themselves- rather than just the events. Based on the advertising, I was expecting more romance and I do really wished it had that.
Editing: sometimes a book sticks with you and this is one of those- giving it a higher rating because I haven’t felt as swept up in a book as I did in this one in a long time.
