- This book touches on so many of the ways patriarchal society hurts women and pushes them down. I felt so deeply for Seraphina and was rooting for her to realize that she deserved to be treated with love and respect, just as she calls for other women in her writings.
- SPOILER! The one thing I found odd about this book is that Seraphina knows so much about pregnancy prevention and yet seemed to know nothing about how or where to obtain an abortion, or that it might even be a possibility. Like, it simply was not mentioned at all?
