annikarae's review against another edition
5.0
this was maybe the most heartbreaking book I have ever read. the story itself was both brutal and ruthless, but was written in a soft, poetic hand. this is a book that will stick with me for a long time. a five star read if ever there was one

Grappled with some very dark themes with authenticity and honesty. A testament to the raw and inherent strength of women, even more so in a time period that discredited their power.
I never wanted this book to end. It was one of those books where you want to highlight everything and commit it to memory so you never let the words leave you.
