The best way I can describe this book is unsettling. A disturbing thriller that was fast paced though difficult to get through at times because of the content. 
I would definitely say check the trigger warnings before reading but I would still recommend.

A beautiful book, who reflect quite admirably the experiences of middle-aged women. Some parts are quite horrifying, although it sadly depict nothing but reality (apart from some magic powers we wish we had), and others are powerful, adorable, funny, heartwarming and satisfying. The characters are incredibly well-written, and the story don't miss a beat.

Brilliantly written with a potent message, this is vicious and heavy-handed. Read with caution, but, if you want feminist just desserts, read on.

This is revenge porn with magic! I love how the women embrace their powers after menopause, when society says that women lose their value. There is a lot of pain and sadness in this book, but there is also payment, justice, and revenge.
It is very well crafted, I have no complaints about the writing.
