The short book highlights how women were treated by their peers and by men, in particular, when deemed difficult or "hysterical".
The characters were interesting and well-written. The imaginary is fantastic, made me feel as if I was there. The only thing I felt was off is the book could've actually be a bit longer. We follow these amazing characters and it feels like some characters just had abrupt endings with hardly an explanation of what happened to them.
