I was drawn into the story, but I did feel like it started a bit slow. I would have liked an epilogue to find out where the women were 2-5 years later. I think i was left wanting a little bit more, but I'm not quite sure what the more is at this time.
Minor Spoilers
Out of the 3 ladies, I felt the most sorry for Muna because I felt she was more sheltered.
I'm glad about the decision Kemi made in the end, but hated that it took her so long to get there.
I wish Muna and Kemi could have connected more.
Brittany-Rae rushed in and took to long to see the signs. I hope she can escape.
