I really liked this book. I thought Hazel was a fantastic female protagonist. She gave all those men a run for their money. Definitely loved Jack. Sometimes the plot did creep me out haha too much dissection talk for me. I wish we would know more about the ending. However, that might be another book?

I really enjoyed this book. The characters felt so real to me and the romance was so genuine. I thought Meyer was adorable. Farley wasn’t my favorite but I still enjoyed their banter. And I loved the whole plot line with Hazel.

I can’t wait to check out other books from this author.

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.

I really enjoyed this book! I am a huge Gene Kelly fan, and I really appreciated all the references to him and his movies (especially the Lina Lamont ones haha). I thought Liam was the sweetest man ever, and I enjoyed Evie's character too. I loved that she was taking her life into her own hands and that she overcame the struggles she was facing. What I also like about this book was all of the side characters. They all felt very real and relatable, and I enjoyed when they appeared in the story.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for providing me with a copy for an honest review.

Sighhh. This book has two of my (newish) favorite tropes: man falls in love first and he hates everyone but her. Such a great story.
