I enjoyed this but there was gratuitous death (though no violence) and about twice as long as it needed to be.
I actually never heard of Grace Darling before so I thought this was interesting. But not realizing it was based on a real person probably impacted my interpretation so I might try it again sometime.

uhhhhh YEAH you could say i cried! love stories about generations of women and how they’re all intertwined. i might fuck around and go live in a lighthouse
It's...fine...I guess. I really didn't like the last few chapter though. It was just overly...romanticized. I wish it had committed to the tragic aspects instead of looking at everything through rose tinted glasses. I dunno. I feel like only middle aged women (just look at all the names of the reviewers) with several children should read this novel. It feels very much like it caters to them and their fantasies, which is fine, but hard for me to relate to even being a woman. I just couldn't relate I guess as I have no children of my own. It just felt oddly...soulless? It feels like a weird way to describe the book, but it's all that comes to mind bearing any accuracy. I guess I'm just not a fan of overly sentimental writing. Reading this was how I figured it out. Maybe I'll give books like this another go if I'm ever married with 2/5 children and a lot more hormones.

This was actually a really interesting read, but the historical inaccuracies knocked it down a few for me. I really enjoyed the dual perspectives, and getting into the heads of the other characters was my favourite bit. I would definitely recommend this, but I don't see myself rereading any time soon.
