Rated The Revisioners 5/10

I usually enjoy books in this genre (historical fiction with a touch of magical realism or the supernatural), but this one fell flat for me. There were many beautiful passages, but ultimately the end just fell flat. I think this would have been better served as a trilogy of novellas - 1855, 1924, & 2017. The constant timeline jumping did not serve the narrative as much as it could have. And frankly, the storyline with the white grandmother wrapped up too abruptly. It felt like lots of setup with a bland resolution.
