This book was a bit much for me. It is very heavy, even the parts we are supposed to cheer for. I think I was supposed to be happy at how the ending turned out, but I wasn’t. While this one localized issue was resolved, what about the rest of the world? 

I also had some questions that were unanswered. If other women like the three main characters exist and have existed for generations, how isn’t there a larger network of them?  

After certain characters were introduced I knew fairly quickly they’d end up being the bad folks, but I didn’t know how. I almost DNF this audiobook several times but I did ultimately want to know how it ended.

First read of 2023 started off with a bang! I absolutely adored this feminist, witchy read. With multiple POVs, but mostly focused on Nessa, Harriet & Jo, I loved to hear their life experiences and yow they got to where they are now. The strength, power and pursuit of justice, a world where all women and girls can be safe  was so beautifully crafted and inspiring, I just I did not want to put this book down. Plus, January LaVoy was incredible as a narrator. She has such a talent for distinguishing voices for each character in a way that is so immersive—my favourite narrator to date! I can’t recommend this magical realism revenge thriller enough & I really hope a sequel is in the works.
