The Company Daughters: A heart-wrenching colonial love story by Samantha Rajaram

emotional slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated

4.0

A slow burn but what a heartfelt and beautifully written story. The imagery, the emotions it invokes, beautiful. Yes, there is a bittersweet love story in this but this book is so, so much more than that. The journey, the obstacles, the heartbreak, the triumph, navigating the unknown twists of life, all delivered in a gorgeous style.
