First of all: I would recommend reading this book. It's a well written book, it's fast passed and it's very enjoyable.
Unfortunately the marketing of this book makes for a slightly disappointing read. It's not a western handmaid's tale or an epic western for that matter, the story was really small.
This book could've benefited from being a little longer. The story takes place over the course of just a few months. The character growth feels rushed. None of the other characters seem to like Ada, let alone care for her. Personally I would've liked to see the complicated relationship between Ada and her gang members be explored more and grow, that would've made the ending more satisfying to me at least.
