The premise of this book is so fascinating! I loved how it was rooted in a real-life story but made it a bit more magical. The execution lagged behind a bit though, sadly - I felt like the ending fell a little flat after a really great setup. Would still wholeheartedly recommend though, it was such a great story overall and an ultimate love letter to maps.
