I think the premise is great - women in the western part of the U.S (I’m assuming mostly Texas & other surrounding states) during the 1800’s disguising themselves as cowboys to steal from those that are against them. Sign me up ! But it’s a little
more complicated than that and despite this book being less than 300 pages, this is one of the few times where I felt the book could have been longer to even out the pacing. I definitely felt Salem Witch Trial vibes but I think the author wanted to do a lot in a short time frame - it felt confusing towards the middle. Ada’s growth as a person was on the right track but I wish there had been enough attention on the other group’s character development as well.
