Historia
Kathryn Barker's Waking Romeo is a spectacularly genre-bending retelling of Romeo & Juliet asking the big questions about true love, fate, and time travel.

This was a lot. It’s a combination of time travel and Romeo and Juliet retelling/continuation, and Withering Heights retelling/continuation. I think it was a little for science fiction then what I was prepared for. I found it pretty confusing and sort of found myself dreading coming to the book after the 60-75% mark.
I do think this would be good for those who liked This is How You Lose The Time War as it somewhat reminded me of that but with more classic reimaginings. But if you’re ready to really think about the interconnectedness and work hard for the payoff, then this is for you.
Overall, I did like the concepts, but found it just a little too difficult to understand for me. I’d love to have the author talk about this book as I believe whole-heartedly that they probably did a ton of research and mapping for this one.
