    I'm currently reading this book and I'm utterly fascinated by the how its genre transcending nature. Historical fiction, contemporary and scifi? I'm hooked. Saw it in the store on and decided our of curiosity to read the first paragraph and I couldn't stop reading it, had to buy it.

      Hey! She's really hit a sweet spot on the genres, hasn't she? I think her ability to do this is one reason she's so successful - she can appeal to so many people. Really hope you enjoy the rest of the book. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment, Saajid.

    I read the book after watching your review. Really loved it!! You are so right about the tranquil voice in the book.. I also found the plot construction to be very creative indeed!

    I just started this! So far I'm struggling to really connect with the story. Thinking I'll get the audiobook.

      Isn't it funny how a good audiobook can give you totally feelings about a book. Hope it helps!

    I'm one of those people who hasn't read Station Eleven yet....its been on my tbr for ages, so hopefully soon. I think I will read that one first and then this one as it does sound interesting. I finished Black Cake last week and though I enjoyed it, I didn't love it as much as I had hoped. 😊

      If I had to pick between S-11 and this one, I would start with S-11 to be honest! Interesting to hear your thoughts on Black Cake. I really enjoyed it! Happy Friday, Corina.

      Station Eleven was a bit special, wasn't it? I can see why it was such a big success. Must be a pressure to follow something like that up! Happy Friday, Vamps x
