What the River Knows
by Isabel Ibañez
4.5 ⭐️
Thanks to Wednesday Books for the ARC!
“It was a sobering thought. The Nile knew everything, has seen the best and worst of Egypt.”
I was obsessed with Ancient Egypt as a kid, so this book is RIGHT up my alley.
It’s such a fun adventure to follow Inez from Buenos Aires to Egypt, trying to unravel the mystery what happened to her recently-deceased parents. You’ll feel like you’re right alongside Inez on the journey experiencing danger, love, adventure, and magic as she sails down the Nile, navigates Cairo, and tries to uncover Cleopatra’s tomb. Inez is extremely headstrong and I loved her character, as well as Whit’s. Their playful back-and-forth was done so well!
The ENDING of this book, on the other hand, was infuriating because I DON’T HAVE BOOK TWO IN MY HANDS. That’s right, folks, this is not a standalone read, and there is a huge cliffhanger. I need more ASAP.
