so-soI‘m not sure how to rate this book. It was one of the most complicated books I‘ve ever read. I learned way more about Sir Isaac Newton and Alchemy than I‘d care to. Although I normally love stories about ghosts and magic, I didn‘t love this one. I can‘t say that the book was bad, because it was obvious that amount of research the author put into it. It was just way too technical for me, footnotes and all.
pickNo matter how long we know someone, we never truly understand them.The Maiden is a gripping psychological thriller that keeps you hooked throughout. Mariana, a 36year-old widow still mourning her husband‘s death receives a call from her niece about a friend‘s murder. As she travels to Cambridge to help, she finds herself caught in a tangled web of secrets and shocking truths. If you enjoy thought-provoking mystery reads, you'll love this one.
