I did love this book. given that the women weren't actively fighting the battles, it means that the stories are more disjointed, so it almost feels like short stories put together. It all does come together in the end. It is beautifully written. You can feel the wrath, pain, and intensity through these stories.
If you love retellings, this is a must read for a new take on a traditional story.
