such a nice chilled read! i’ve seen this book everywhere online since it came out, with a really memorable cover so i picked it up in the library without even knowing what it was about. i didn’t actually read the blurb until i was 30 pages in, wondering where the story was actually going to go 😂 
it’s not my usual genre, with the characters being middle aged and it being general/historical fiction but it was a really relaxing laid back book. a nice break from stressful fantasy i usually read! really well written and nice historical touches in terms of descriptions and vocabulary.
