Boring. It follows Outlander in style, but I only liked that one because the author is exceptionally talented.
The author clearly inserted herself as the protagonist. “A book writer having problems coming up with her next story, moves in to an old scottish (?) village in order to find inspiration, and suddenly she starts talking to the characters in her book”.
This is too cringey for me.
Gostei muito desta história. Tem alguns problemas como a autora insistir em dar autênticas aulas de história, em vez de mostrar coisas a acontecer. Mas no fundo uma história linda :)
This was a pretty good book, but I thought the surprise twist that gave a happy ending was unnecessary.
