City of Spies by Mara Timon
4.0

A great debut novel with a story full of fiction and reality moments. This book wasn't what i was expecting at all and i am not disappointed at all by the characters or events.
It reads out much more like a contemporary novel, in my opinion, it doesn't have at all that historical poetic veil and the heroine is sassy and determined, very opinionated and proves in many occasions what a strong heroine and character she is, facts that i absolutely loved. She spends no time wasting when she wants something and goes for it.
With all the spies and suspenseful events, i read it more like a romance or at least the subplot is way heavier in the romance department and probably that's part of me enjoying this book so much.


Many thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for my review copy.
