📝Even though MMC basically loved FMC from the start, and I'm usually a sucker for that, it was kind of hard to root for him because he kept something secret from her that he definitely shouldn't have, for like a long time. I admired FMC's commitment to the cause (women's rights and suffrage) even if she could be myopic about it. And I learned a bit from the book about the state of women's rights in Victorian England. 

🎧 Dual POV, only one (female) narrator, she was good. 

🌶️ 3.5/5 There were a few steamy scenes but they weren't super graphic. 

🏳️‍🌈✊ Neurodivergence rep!! MMC probably has ADHD. His mother has a mental illness--at least depression, possibly bipolar.
