I don't think I got quite what I was expecting with this one.
I was expecting more focus on the different realities, which didn't really kick in until a good way through the book.
As much as this is classed as historical fiction, it has a definite feel of young adult to me.
Never the less, I enjoyed Olivia.
She was spirited and fun, and curious, and a character you can't help but warm to.
Interesting to see her work out exactly what was going on.

Thank You Boldwood Books for the ARC!

THE HOUSE OF LOST WHISPERS by Jenni Keer is an utterly unforgettable reading group historical novel, that is part romance, part gripping mystery, and part completely heartbreaking First World War historical fiction. Perfect for fans of Titanic, In Memoriam and Lucinda Riley.

To sum up the book a few words --- absolutely breathtaking and amazing! I'm in love with the way the historical fiction is written, the timeslips and mysteries all culminated perfectly. The clues and subtle hints are cleverly pointed and hidden that made my jaw drop when they were revealed.

The staggering read is something I can recommend to anyone who loves the Historical Fiction genre where there is mystery that keeps you on the edge the entire time!
