Of All Faith and None by Andrew Tweeddale is historical fiction, with a setting between 1910 and 1917. The story focused majorly on the Lutyens, Drewe, and many others. Edwin Lutyen, an architect, was asked to design a castle for Julius Drewe, who wanted to leave a legacy for Adrian. Although he was wealthy and influential, Peter Hall, an engineer, also worked with Lutyen on designing the Drogo Castle. Lutyen's daughter Celia had to meet with the Drewe family. Adrian, Kit, and Basil at the stone-laying ceremony at Drewsteignton. Celia fell in love with Adrian. Although Adrian didn’t care much about how she felt, Kit Drewe met with Rose Braithwaite, a nurse who worked at St. Thomas Hospital. Adrian had already enlisted and joined the army. Will fate unite Kit and his brother Adrian for the love of their lives, or will war swallow up their dream? Read on and find out for yourself.

I so much love this book, as it looks too real. I couldn’t stop reading the book as it was filled with scenes of love and war. The characters were properly developed. Celia’s decision to help at the Ensleigh hospital in September 1916. This was a good idea. It showed that, at some point in life, one has to give up on one's desires to help others. This also gave her the opportunity to meet with Adrian in the hospital often, as his brother Kit was badly injured during the war.

The scene of war got me crying, and the profane words even made the book more interesting. The fact that Rose got married to Peter Hall, which she regretted, was the only part of the book I didn’t like.I couldn’t find any errors in the book. Celia’s character is really exceptional, as she was determined to get what she wanted. The character of Rose also appeals to real-life stories. where a man will be in love with someone and end up marrying another.

I find this book exceptionally well edited, as I find every part of the book very interesting. Although it’s a fiction book, I feel like reading the book over and over again. It focused more on war and romance. I therefore rate this book 5 out of 5.
.
I recommend this book to those who love historical fiction. Those who need an idea of what war looks like and those who love to read novels about romance should also go for this book.

It’s interesting to see how people lived long ago and how they acted. I don’t think that many parents are inclined to provide a legacy for their children in these times.

I would love to see, if ever, there's a sequel, the continuation of the love story of Rose and Kit. Also, Celia's abrupt story of love between Adrian. Your review is lovely, Blessing!
