this is one of the most female empowering books i've ever read, fitting to read in the year of Taylor Swift, Beyoncé, and the Barbie movie. I laughed, cried, gasped, got goosebumps, and learned a lot from this book about the history of women's rights, and literal chemistry. One of my favorites I've read this year - i rooted for the female characters, i loved the different perspectives, and found this book relatable on so many levels. I'd befriend Elizabeth and Harriet in a instant if I could. I didn't mesh with the rushed ending, kinda felt like it left you hanging, and it did get slow at times when there seemed to be no hope or good people until pg 140 and then it turns around.

Liked this one a lot. Not much more I have to say about it other than I think it will translate well into a TV show.

After reading this novel, I feel like it lives up to the hype. I listened to the audiobook on Libby and felt so close to the characters - pup included. Incredible writing - full of intent and personality. I always ache for a more complex, nuanced perspective on gender that goes beyond the binary, which this lacks, as do many books, but I will still read whatever Garmus puts out next!
