Initially I thought this book had a lot of promise based on the blurb and positive reviews. However I have mixed feelings now I've finished it.
Overall I did enjoy the read, however the first half was very slow and incredibly repetitive. It touched on the life of women around the 1950's / 1960's and what they were often subjected to / expected of them.
I would also have preferred to have learnt a bit more about the dragons, how they felt, more around what they explored and why and
I also felt there was a lot of
So overall I enjoyed it but felt it was lacking in some areas.
