4.5

A beautiful book, who reflect quite admirably the experiences of middle-aged women. Some parts are quite horrifying, although it sadly depict nothing but reality (apart from some magic powers we wish we had), and others are powerful, adorable, funny, heartwarming and satisfying. The characters are incredibly well-written, and the story don't miss a beat.

Brilliantly written with a potent message, this is vicious and heavy-handed. Read with caution, but, if you want feminist just desserts, read on.
