I really admire the author's dedication to not only historical accuracy in period setting, but even the writing style and general philosophy is consistent with the time. Unfortunately, this style is not really for me. The style made the characters feel detached and aloof, so it was difficult for me to get into it. I'll stick to historical fiction with a more modern voice.

would like to thank netgalley and the publisher for letting me read this book
