Overall Review:
Excellent book with a great plot. This book is focused around 3 women from 3 different time periods, and you soon find how they are all linked together through time. A fascinating read with the perfect amount of detail per character; just enough that you feel like you know the person, but not too much where all you’re reading are useless facts.
The stories took you into three different time periods: Post World War 1 in England, The Dust Bowl in Kansas, and Pre-Mars Settlement in Kansas.
The writer did a great job at tying all three stories together realistically, where it didn’t seem like it was a stretch by any means for these events to happen. I can tell that the author also did a lot of research herself into post-world war 1 and the dust bowl because everything seemed to be very realistic and not embellished by any means.
Not to mention, I like the tiny little tid bit she put in there about climate change. She never directly said it, but she implied that cities were under water and that was the sudden need to settle Mars. Being a weather nerd, I liked this added bit because in all honesty, that could actually be reality in our future.
