I absolutely LOVED this book. If I hadn’t needed to work, I would’ve finished it in one sitting. Although there is a lack of diversity in any way beyond man & woman, the story is enticing and compelling. It is well written, moving, and a really cool new story about the experiences of women prior to women’s suffrage. One of my favorite reads of 2022!
