There were so many moments and feelings of womanhood and being (perceived as) a woman in a patriarchal society that were quite relatable despite the plot taking place just about 65 years ago. This book is a good reminder that we have come far, but we still have quite a ways to go as well. (And that's just white women!) It's a good reminder that you /can/ do whatever you want. You have control over your decisions even if people won't like them or are actively working against you. Do the right thing for you. A sentiment I do believe comes partly out of privilege but still stands nonetheless with the necessary compromise. I guess I would have one critique which is how the last few chapters focused quite some on the man. While the foreshadowing was there and it was a good resolution, it somehow fell out of tune for me with the 70% of the book I just read. A bit disappointing.
