This book was not what I expected at all. It was so heavy and a bit boring in the beginning. It picked up a little at the end. 

I wish it was all about the 1700s. Nella and Eliza’s story was interesting although I wish it wasn’t about the end of everything. I did not really like the modern part of the book. Also, especially hated James, and the whole hospital plot line really made me want to stop reading. It annoyed me a lot.
