Beautiful, heart-wrenching, unbelievable. This book about a society that uses extreme measures to belittle and minimize women made me think deeply about the parallels we might draw to our own society. This is a story about growing up and growing into who we’re becoming even when our becoming could cost us everything and this is a story about the magic and power of women, especially when they bind themselves inextricably to one another. I’ll be thinking about this book for a long, long time.
