This #Chunkster has taken me a while, but I really enjoyed it!
A historical novel mixed with some folklore, based on the ill fated Franklin expedition to find the north west passage.
I watched the tv show a while ago which was amazing, so I am glad I have finally managed to read it :)

Dark. Feminist. Gothic. Angry. Dual timelines. Short chapters. Yesssssss
I enjoyed this. Initially, I was excited about the book but soon found myself growing disengaged as the pace was slow. I even considered giving up. However, when Mills finally introduced some action, I became committed to finishing the book. Now that I‘m done, I found the second half to be engaging and suspenseful, with a satisfying ending. Mills created characters who felt real and flawed.
