This kept me hooked, could not put it down but the ending felt unsatisfying and incomplete.

I really wanted to like this as it’s one of my favourite historical periods to read about. However, it was just too slow and wordy. There was also too many characters and not enough time spent on each. The only character I found of any interest was Prior. Some of the writing about the psychological effects of the war were interesting at times 

2-2.5 ⭐️ 

Predictable and ridiculous. But quick and easy read.

A surprisingly enjoyable read with a nice message at the end that little acts of nonsense could be life changing.
