 What a brilliant read!

I don’t know a huge amount about Emily Dickinson, but this book gave me an insight into her early adulthood. There were highs and lows, friendships and romances, and we see her start to explore her talents as a poet. The author explores not only Emily’s perspective but the perspectives of her closest friends, particularly Susan Gilbert.

I was drawn into the story from the very start, immersed in the setting and invested in the characters. I read the whole book in one sitting and I felt transported to 19th Century Amherst.

The romance between Emily and Susan was beautifully written, with big sweeping romance and little moments that just made me feel so much for them. The journey they went on, figuring out their feelings and a way to be together, was incredibly moving and made for a very emotional read.

This is a most-read for any fans of queer historical fiction, full of atmosphere and romance. It was beautifully written and I can’t wait to see what the author writes next!

I received a free copy for review. All opinions are my own.
