Dear Nineteen Steps,
I fell into the bookstagram gotta read it hype to check this one out. I did enjoy your story and your characters, but you felt like a story I already knew. In all reality, you pretty much followed the story-line of the movie Armageddon. While I appreciate that you are a family story for Millie Bobby Brown, and part of her heritage, your love triangle felt overdone and predictable. That part of your story aside, I really loved the historical details about the bomb shelters during WWII and the corruption of the government and how many people they were willing to sacrifice. Your characters were interesting and I liked that they were based on real people as well. You were just a middle of the road story for me.
