A review by fictioncourt
The Hamilton Affair by Elizabeth Cobbs
2.0
I have to say that Cobbs is a genius for releasing this now, the Hamilton hype is strong and everyone is looking for anything that has to do with the musical. Like myself. I have the Musical playing 24/7 so when I saw this on NetGalley I had a mini heart attack, Hamilton but in a novel? Hell yeah!
Unfortunately this was not what I hoped it would be, first of all it took me days to push through and the only thing that kept me going where the little snippets that were just like the musical.
Second of all, where in the world is Angelica? She's pretty much MIA here, I mean I love Eliza and this is obviously her book but where's Angelica?! I found myself getting disappointed pretty early on and then I just didn't even want to continue. I wanted more depth and more development, the only character that felt truly developed was Ajax and he was fictional...
I'll go back to the musical and cheer myself up now...
