As someone with a BA in history and conflicted feelings about grad school I related to Caroline quite a bit, especially during and after her historical investigation. I found all three women to be compelling in their own ways. The relationships that blossom in this book are fantastic. The side characters are also great. (I had a massive crush on Gainer the entire time).
I took the .25 off because, while the ending was overall satisfying, I didn't totally love it. There is a moment where it seems like
Aside from her relationship,
Overall a great read with a mostly satisfying ending. I could see myself listening to this one more time.

The secondary characters (aka the "historical" cast) deal with a variety of issues of which the solution is a lot of death. It is a very frank look at what women through out history have faced and the way they've taken matters into their own hands when faced with issues like infidelity, pedophilia, child abuse and the like.ambarnes's review against another edition
