i have to say, historical fiction is a hit or miss, this sadly does lean a bit towards the miss, but more because i didnt quite enjoy how very flat everything seemed and how the characters itself didnt seem to have much depth. i enjoyed the parts where the book was more critical and involved with religion and womanhood and the relationships between a couple of the characters were amazing and i love the overall themes and setting of the book. but it is just average to me.
