1.0

Such a huge disappointment. Being a graduate of Mount Holyoke College, I was really looking forward to this book. The only thing I got out of it was nostalgia for my days on campus. Poorly written, boring, boring, and boring. The author used the premise of a real disappearance as a platform for superficial feminist  topics. Would’ve been better as a real crime story than an historical recreation.

Beautifully written and conceived, carefully braiding careful research through fictional narration. A pleasure to read!
