4 stars

In an apocalyptic future, residents of St. Louis are secreted behind a wall and believe they are the only society still alive, until a young, strange woman appears and leaves hints to a better place. Most of this novel is dark, dark, so it took me a long time to finish. On the cover, Stephen King is quoted as saying "Good God, what a tale" and I definitely agree with that statement. This is a sweeping story, and even though it uses familiar apocalyptic ideas, it feels epic in scope. I really enjoyed the writing and will definitely look for more books by this author. I received this from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
How to Bewilder a Lord by Ally Bradfield
Non-rated

I have decided not to rate this book because even though I did like the story overall, I think that I would have enjoyed it much more had I read the prior book in the series. I believe that the main characters actually meet and interact in the previous book and I think that would have made a big difference in my reading experience. So, while this is a good historical romance, I would definitely recommend reading this series in order. I received this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
