A historical setting, mysterious Tarot cards, characters with cult-y vibes. All of this seemed really up my alley! It was interesting enough but unfortunately it all felt a bit half-baked.
Ann seemed to have no personality or depth, despite being the main character. Rachel was more interesting. Ann does have some character development 75% of the way through the book, but it really comes out of left field and made for a weird ending.
