The writing was very fast paced, broken into seasons of the Grace Year, so it reads more like a diary without marked chapters. There is an eeriness left in my imagination after reading this book about how similar our worlds are, or how precious the freedoms women have been "granted" by the men who owned them. Seeing good men represented in a feminist book, identifying what makes a great ally for women's rights, is great to see.
Like Tierney, we all have dreams of the world we want to see reality become. The ambiguous ending frustrates me but I do love getting decide what really happened.

There is something so special about this book that had me reading it in two days, and eating up every second of it. I didn’t come into this book thinking I would love it and resonate with the characters as much as I did. There were insufferable characters, and there were moments of extreme frustration on my end. However, all of that needed to happen. If I got what I wanted, the ending wouldn’t be the same and have the same impact. I was mad (
One of the few gripes I had is a spoiler so blocking it.
