By Any Other Name is a story about two women hundreds of years apart and the challenges they experience trying to get their voices heard. It’s a powerful story about feminism, finding yourself, and bravery. I did find myself more invested in Emilia’s story than Melina. It’s clear Jodi Picoult completed extensive research for this book. Her authors note at the end was very interesting. I’d recommend this book people who are fans of Picoult’s previous work and theater fans. 

Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for an ARC in exchange for my honest review.
