I loved the historical aspect. Also, Matthew and Diana have a very complex relationship, and I loved the connections they made past and present. If you love good descriptive linguistics, and mood setting then it’s a book series for you.
YES. There was only one thing I didn’t like in the entire series but it’s a pet peeve that’s not uncommon in books, but that’s also just cause of my own life choices/beliefs etc. Aside from that though the entire series is amazing (I read time’s convert but all the stuff I loved in discovery of witches was absent from time’s convert.) Just be prepared for a wild ride and some serious withdrawals when you finish it.
I was going through a miscarriage when I got to the part when the protagonist miscarries and I put the book down for over a year. When I came back to it I still wasn’t a fan really. Been hesitant to read book three too.
Eh, I couldn’t finish book 2. I got halfway through and I quit. When I have to google entire conversations in another language, that’s too much. I feel like she tried to prove her intellect by putting in all this stuff… language, words I’ve had to google, history… it was all too much and very long winded. I wanted to love it, but it was boring to me.
I liked it! I really felt like it touched on breaking barriers too!

@Melissa (slight spoiler ahead)
I was going through a miscarriage when I got to the part when the protagonist miscarries and I put the book down for over a year. When I came back to it I still wasn’t a fan really. Been hesitant to read book three too.
@Molly I am 3/4 done and just can’t get it finished have not read in 4 days because of it haha

The beginning is boring, and then it just gets extremely problamatic…
I loved them! Can’t wait for the show!!
Yes it’s a awesome series
I tried reading them but a bit slow. So I ordered them on audio so I could listen instead. Much better and it helps my drive go faster.

I’ve been enjoying it! The first book started slow but once it got going I loved it. Book 2 was really good and I am currently in book 3
Most definitely!!!!!
Omg I need to read it
Eh, I couldn’t finish book 2. I got halfway through and I quit. When I have to google entire conversations in another language, that’s too much. I feel like she tried to prove her intellect by putting in all this stuff… language, words I’ve had to google, history… it was all too much and very long winded.

@Michelle ☝? YES!!!!!!
