I loved this imagining of of Harley Quinn. It had great representation of women in STEM, and of various personality traits too, dismissing this stereotype that 'the hot blonde' can't be intelligent too. 

I loved getting a glimpse into an idea of what her earlier years building up to her career (both as a psychiatrist and as a villan) and getting more of her personality and identity outside of the Joker.

The relationships between the girls in the reckoning was so varied and real. I adored how they grew, became tense and fractured, and then realigned again.

I throughly enjoyed this story and can't wait to read the next one.

The note at the end was very poignant into how women in STEM are treated even still to this day. This whole story was so inspiring.
