Tilly as an interesting character as she struggles in the upper class society she is raised in and to just exist as herself when her individuality is crushed by the societal expectations. Tilly wants to be a reporter like Nellie Blye but she is expected to marry and be a well behaved and well mannered young lady even though she is struggling with the death of her sister and wants to have answers. The romance was sweet and I enjoyed.
I found the representation of addiction and substance use to be well done and humanizing as well as relatable. One part of the story that I appreciated was how Tilly's use of opium is tied to her family try to control her and her behavior which they do not approve of.
The plot twist was unexpected and well done at the end. I also appreciate that Nellie Blye made an appearance in the story.
Moderate: Domestic abuse, Addiction, Drug abuse, and Drug use
