I really enjoy the like criminal minds kind of feel of this book, because murder mysteries are genuinely so cool. But. There are bits that are just so YA which is the same complaint I had about the last book. Still worth reading, I just have to kind of ignore some bits. Womp womp.

If there is one thing Jennifer Lynn Barnes enjoys writing, it is a love triangle that barely exists in the written plot but is a big deal in the character’s mind. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy reading this (almost) painfully YA book… but I don’t know if I’ll pick up the sequel yet.

I don’t mind a bit of dramatized historical fiction. I think it especially fitting for books covering periods like WWII. I’m thoroughly enjoying this so far, and I enjoy reading Christian’s thoughts more than I do Corine’s. She’s an ok fmc right now.

What an absolutely ridiculous book. I can’t even defend it at the moment and I love a cheesy historical fiction book. I just finished chapter 9 of 32 and the male protagonist is convinced that he has lost all hope. Absolutely stupid.

I’m obsessed with the little nods to history with fantastical explanations for them. It really makes for a fascinating read!

This is so much better and so much sweeter than the show. Boo to book to screen adaptations they’re never what we need them to be. ☹️

Better than the tv show rn

I have not read this book in probably ten years, and now I’m trying to figure out how I read this ten years ago. The beginning is very slow. But here’s hoping it gets better.
