Novella, multi third person POV, alternating timeline

👍 An interesting prequel to the series. I love the idea of Anne Boleyn being an actual witch with a coven.
👎 The book kind of glosses over a few things and reduces some other things down to pettiness. I think a full length novel would’ve fixed those issues.

Historical fiction, dual POV, strong FMCs

👍 An interesting portrayal of Lady Duff Gordon who divorced her husband and started a fashion empire. All very unheard of at the time. To top it off? She survived the Titanic and even crazier, cancelled her passage on the RMS Lusitania at the last minute. I enjoyed learning about her.

📚 “This is the terrible thing about a tragedy. It isn’t with you every minute. You forget it, and then you remember it again.”

👍Binged in a day. It has a strong start. The mystery was compelling and I enjoyed the trip to Austin. The last line was heart warming.

👎 This was not your typical HEA. The character development didn’t really make sense.

📚 “Love is always harder. Love means weathering blows for another’s sake and not counting them.”

👍A historical fiction set in France during the plague. It gave me Pillars of the Earth mixed with The Decameron vibes. I enjoyed following the MC’s on their journey and the character development. There were some consequences and some absolutely bonkers depictions of demons and Hell. The ending had some nice symmetry.

👎 The final boss fight was slightly anti climactic. I feel like after such a long journey, I needed more.

📚 “I sing for her and think wildly that I would compose symphonies if only for her to speak to me.”

👍 What a great ending to the series! I binged this in a day, I was addicted! I loved finally getting to know Joel and Key better and Dusty was a dynamic FMC. Of course, I’m happy we got to see Becks x James and Dave x Izzy some more too 💜 I think I hated Simon from book two more than Logan, but at least Logan got the punch in the face I wanted to give Simon LOL

*Thank you to the author for gifting me an eARC in exchange for an honest review*

👍 A very rich narrative. I would say this was more a Romantasy than a historical fiction. Taking that into account, the ending made more sense compared to what happened historically. I did appreciate the explanation the author gave at the end too.

👎The book could’ve been a little shorter imo.

📚 “People disappear all the time in Germany. We are almost as famous for that as we are for strudel.”

👍The audio was utterly gripping to me. I think WWII is a common setting in historical fiction but this book focusing on the Olympics and the lead up was refreshing.

👎The ending was kind of weird. I can’t say much without spoilers but it just kinda lingered 🤷‍♀️
