One of my favourite books that I read this year.
Michael Christie‘s writing is beautiful and the story is unique and fascinating. I loved each generation and the structure was so interesting. On top of that, the hardcover books is absolutely beautiful. This book is mostly a historical fiction, but it moves into the present day and then into a future that is more in line with apocalypse stories, so it covers a wide range of genres.

This is a big story, told in a beautiful way. I have a habit of dragging my feet on books that I‘m really enjoying, I don‘t want them to end. This one took forever to finish. I loved how the characters and storylines are woven together through multiple timelines. It does remove some suspense because you know the events that are going to happen in some places. But I think it‘s worth it because it makes the characters deeper and more connected.
