So far, as historical fiction, this is an okay book.
But one of my biggest pet peeves in historical fiction is an author’s poor research into the time period. As an example, the Narnia books were all written after WW2 and yet one of our main characters mentions that her friends and adventures were in Narnia.
Another concern is writers writing British fiction and not using appropriate British terms.
