A unique premise that I enjoyed. I felt this book was divided equally between the historical plot line and Isabelle's internal journey.
There were certain sections I found difficult to read, but because they held so much truth that's often difficult to face—and for that reason I simultaneously loved those passages.
The story moved at a quick pace and I never found myself tempted to skim. There were times where I felt Isabelle's moral compass was spinning so fast I couldn't keep up. I felt like her romantic relationships could've had maybe a bit more development, but overall a thoroughly entertaining book.
