I really like the premise of this book, obviously so little is known about Mileva Marić but I love the concept of reading a book told in the perspective of a woman in stem from the 1900’s that was just as influential as Einstein if not more just not credited in the way she should have been. That being said it was an okay book. I wasn’t invested in the characters and I just didn’t vibe with the writing. I’m all for powerful women taking back their name and calling men out though.
