I loved this book. I read it all in one sitting, exactly like the first book. I loved the historical setting and that Princess Charlotte was featured. Bridgerton fans, if you want a different take on Princess Charlotte, definitely give this series a try!

I loved the marriage of science and alchemy in this story and was so glad to see that it stayed true to the first book. Mostly science but a touch of magic. I also loved the historical figures featured in the story.

I am a huge Dana Schwartz fan and will most definitely continue to read her books.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Immortality is the final installment in the Anatomy Duology. Another beautiful book cover. Just absolutely stunning!

We reunite with Hazel Sinnett again in Immortality, where she is arrested and then saved by a peculiar request, to be the personal physician of Princess Charlotte. She still cannot believe what has happened in the past year with the immortality, Dr. Beecham, and her love, Jack. Is Jack dead or alive? What is actually going on with Hawthornden Castle and the Companions to the Death?!

While I will say, I did enjoy Anatomy a bit more, this is a perfect end to the duology. There were a lot of subplots going on, and a few events surprised me in a very good way. I enjoyed reading and being on Hazel’s adventure. Can’t wait to see what Dana Schwartz does next!

It was ok.... but not as good as the first book.

I was very excited to come back to this world and to see what Hazel and Jack are up to and what will happen next. This book picks up a couple weeks after the end of the last book, and we're following Hazel as she visits her patients & deals with what happens at the end of book 1.

I was sincerely enjoying the first 30% of this novel and could not put the book down, but after that the pacing slowed down and it almost felt like a completely different story to me. New characters were introduced and I unfortunately wasn't a huge fan of most of them. We also were introduced to a new romantic lead, meaning that this book had a love triangle...

The last 70% of this book was very predictable and honestly felt a bit unnecessary. It felt like Hazel was taking a step back in character development rather than forward. And I did not enjoy the ending, it felt like the author didn't tie up enough of the loose ends and plans to write another book in this world to update us on the characters in the future.

Overall, disappointing ending to this duology. If I knew how it was going to end I probably wouldn't have started book one.

Immortality: A Love Story is the perfect follow up to Dana Schwartz's debut, Anatomy: A Love Story. With the same tone -- it's eerie, creepy, and a little bit gory -- it infuses even more romance to give the story even more warmth and good feelings than the first iteration. A really great, fun read in a unique setting.

Hazel, still practicing medicine at her home, becomes embroiled in a legal mess that lands her in jail - potentially awaiting the hangman's noose. That is, until she is saved by an unlikely source - The Royal Family. Hazel is sent to be the personal physician of the ailing Princess Charlotte of Wales who has been suffering from an unknown illness for some time.

I found this to be a well rounded ending to the duology. A little unbelievable at times - but what series about immortality wouldn't be?

Yet another spectacular read from Schwartz. Loved everything from the characters to the plot to the twists and turns.

I was so excited for Dana Schwart's sequel in The Anatomy Duology and this didn't disappoint. I was eager to find out if Jack survived that cliffhanger!! This story introduced my new favorite characters of a pampered, dramatic princess and a sweet Swedish doctor. Hazel has risen in popularity and now is a physician to the royal family. Add in a devious secret society, everlasting list, and love = a recipe for
for Gothic Fantasy perfection!

3.5 stars ☆ I was excited to read this book after finishing anatomy. I'm still in awe of how beautiful the cover is. stunning.

The ending from the last book really made me pick this book up cause it made me feel like I need answers from it. Now, this book isn't the same feeling as what I felt from reading anatomy. I had high hopes for it, especially from the beginning but as I read through, it started to get messy and predictable. I still enjoyed reading it, I was just disappointed.

Thank you to NetGalley and to the publisher for the arc !!!

I thought this was a well rounded way to finish up this duology. I really enjoyed Anatomy a love story and this did not disappoint. Schwartz has a writing style that I get lost in. Hazel was a character that I immediately fell in love with and enjoyed following in both books. Nothing like a talented, resilient, smart and strong FMC. I look forward to more from Dana in the future.

The book starts with Hazel still practicing medicine at her home in Hawthornden Castle. One night a woman shows up at her house close to death. Hazel nurses her back to health, but then is thrown in jail because the woman had lost her child. Hazel was set to rot in prison until she is saved and sent to work for the Royal Family. Princess Charlotte has been ill and no doctor can figure out what is wrong, so Prince Regent gives Hazel a chance to treat Princess Charlotte. In the meantime, Hazel meets Dr. Simon Von Ferris who is treating King George for his madness. Dr. Ferris sparks her interest, but Hazel is still missing Jack. However, she certainly enjoys working with Dr. Ferris, and there is the potential for a love triangle. The ending seemed a little rushed, but overall it was fun to be back in Hazel’s world. I actually enjoyed this more than the first book. I think the pacing was better, and I enjoyed the friendship with Princess Charlotte and the potential love interest in Dr. Ferris.

The end of Anatomy: A Love Story sent my head spinning! This sequel picks up nearly when we left off, but I did scratch my head a bit when I realized we were staying in Europe and not fleeing to America. But I was glad we stayed in the UK and went to London. I love London during this era and the setting description is so well done. The supernatural aspects of this duology were in full effect this go around and I loved it!

Try to solve this mystery. Man I normally can figure things out before we're told but this one not so much. I was on the edge of my seat until the very last page. I am sad that this is only a duology because I need more of this world. The romance was a wonderful addition to the overall tale and well the dead bodies just bring a great feel to the tale.

It may surprise some people that I gave a book that took me 3 months to read a 3-star review. That is all thanks to the final third of the book getting a star of its own for being really compelling and damn good writing. The beginning was *very* hard to enjoy and I found myself avoiding continuing on with the eARC. I probably would have given up entirely, but I was reading this book for so long that I was able to get back into it with the audiobook through my library app. Hazel's story did have a great ending after all that, but it was a long and painful reading journey to get me there.

Thank you Netgalley for a free copy of this title for review.
I'm going to start this review by admitting that I have not read the first book 'Anatomy: a love story' but I want to admit after reading this I did go out and look for a copy of 'Anatomy'.
I really enjoyed reading about the adventures and misadventures that Hazel Sinnett, a lady who trained to be a surgeon under a male alias in the last book, and who at the start of the novel is practicing medicine amongst the locals outside of Hawthornden Castles, her families estate. Hazel is accused of a crime and faces a life in prison and then is rescued from this fate to become the personal physician to Princess Charlotte. In this turn of events many famous people of this period make cameos and it is quite enjoyable. I would definitely recommend to people who have a love for the Romantic period.

I wanted to love this one, but unfortunately it missed the mark. The first 75% of the book was wonderful, but the ending was so strange.

An amazing conclusion to the story that begun in Anatomy! Loved Hazel and Jack together in this one!

Absolutely loved Immortality and it’s predecessor, Anatomy. I hope Schwartz continues writing gothic novels in the future, because I will absolutely keep reading

After thoroughly enjoying last year’s release of Anatomy: A Love Story, I was anxious to pick up this sequel once I learned that book one’s ending was, in fact, not the ending at all. While this installment takes a somewhat different route plot wise, I still enjoyed reading it and being immersed in this familiar world once again. This book isn’t as gory as book one, which was a real shame, but I understand why the author chose to go the route that she did. There is a love triangle introduced here, and that made my heart anxious because of my love of Jack in the first book, but I think it was well done and felt content with how things wrapped up in the end. If you enjoyed part one of the Anatomy duology, I think it’s worth the read to continue on with book 2.

While I thought the beginning of this book took a little getting into, once I was immersed in the story I didn’t want to put it down and I loved it as much, if not more than Anatomy. Hazel is such a strong female lead and reminds me of Audrey Rose from the Stalking Jack the Ripper books, a girl with ambitions ahead of her time. I really enjoyed how the duology was wrapped up.

I loved Anatomy when I read it last year, and couldn't wait to dive into Immortality! In this adventure with Hazel, we leave Edinburgh for London. I was sad to leave our cast of characters from the previous book, but there were some great additions here. I especially liked the sapphic romance sub-plot. Despite my overall enjoyment, I was kinda confused by Jack's actions for a chunk of the book. I felt like he flip-flopped around about some things and I'm not sure why. Once Hazel and Jack got on the same page though, we were all systems go!
