Beautiful beautiful and I mean truly a work of art. It was amazing to watch and see the growth of these two families through so many generations. And it made me more inclined to learn more about my family's history. It was so rich in culture and history it amazed me. Every generation backdrop felt so researched that I felt like i was actually there. The craft of this novel just left me speechless and I'm so shocked that this is her first novel and I can't wait to see what she does in the future. A full review will definitely be done on this book.
