A review by readingwithhippos
Girl Waits with Gun by Amy Stewart

3.0

A light, funny and feministy romp of a novel set in the early 1900s, in which headstrong Constance Kopp and her bevy of unmarried sisters take on a bully of a man who crashes his car into their buggy. What begins as a simple quest for just recompense turns into a new career for Constance, who eventually becomes one of the first-ever female deputy sheriffs. I love how Constance’s assertiveness is paired with a dry sense of humor—I chuckled aloud more than a few times—and the narrator of the audio version absolutely nails her wry, businesslike tone.
