3.0
The premise was very promising, and the book turned out to be beautifully written.
It started with dual POV and dual timeline (which I don't mind). We're introduced to Verity, a historian who focused on women's contribution in medieval era.
I enjoy the dual POV so much especially diving into Beatrice's mind thousands years ago.
I admitted that the book is well researched. However, some ppl might not enjoy the info dumping (I don't mind).
The pace is quite inconsistent to my liking.
If the premise suits your taste, give it a go.
