I went through and annotated and it gave me a fresh view on the book. I think I cried when I found out who the killer was before, but this time around I'd gone through all the clues and knew who it was by the end.
It being a historical fiction adds to the definition of the main character being a women, she's often looked down upon but she almost never allows it to get in her way.
And I have to say, I think I also fell for the love interest by the end. (though, maybe not book boyfriend worthy; Yet!)
It took me around 4 days to finish the book (while I read all of Acotar in a span of a week) so I'd say it is a slower read to really grasp every ounce of information.
I also loved that she adds information at the end of the book so you really capture what information she used to inspire her and be accurate.
Stay tuned for Hunting Prince Dracula, as Ill be rereading and annotating that one as well.
