Beautiful piece of historical fiction! Diamant brings the world of Biblical women to life with such vibrancy and honesty. She doesn't shy away from hardship and the ugly details of life, but also celebrates the strength, knowledge, and accomplishments of Dinah and the women who form her sisterhood.

Minor: Adult/minor relationship, Body horror, Cursing, Incest, and Sexual content

The book is succinct and detailed about sex, but does not move into sickening realms. Most times sex is described, it is done in a matter-of-fact way.
