Loved the setting, and every character had my heart. The way these ladies come together made my heart so full, this is what true friendship looks like.
There were points where I thought it would get a bit slow, but just as I was thinking this it picked back up right away!
Also highly recommend the audiobook, there were points when the English accent would slip a bit but it wasn’t too offensive.

The setting too, was so well rendered. What an awful time and place. I'm sure the beauty of the place was supposed to shine through, but the dirt and poverty and hardship, and knowing those kinds of things really happened there and still happen all over the world, and that we all benefit from the misery of others, was tough.
Several times I had to skip a page or two to avoid traumatising content
But reading about the friendship and the women's determination was wonderful.
