Me and hyped books don’t usually get along and this is another case of a very hyped book falling flat for me…..
3.5/5 stars rounded down for this one
I love the premise behind this book… but I didn’t love the execution. I wasn’t sure what to expect when going into it because I’d been avoiding reading a lot of reviews and can snippets of what the book was truly about and it didn’t really do anything for me.
I didn’t think the romance aspect was anything special and I didn’t think the fantasy aspect was anything special. It had some good moments in the book when I thought I would start to like it more and then it would go back to the parts I wasn’t enjoying as much. I loved seeing Addie go through time and tell her story but I felt like we got so little of it after the initial 50 years. And then I’d wait for the romance to pick up just to start thinking that it can’t really be love in the situation she was in ….
I don’t know, maybe it’s just me but I thought the book was just okay. It had some great lines in it and had some really great moments but the whole thing just fell short for me
