This is an emotionally heavy book with lots of trigger warnings⚠️, however Hart does not add gruesome details or scenes unnecessarily. All the details and difficult themes are important; they add to each woman’s journey and eventually their growth.
Hart’s description of nature, tenderness for each Weyward woman’s storyline, her compassion for their struggle, and the epilogue that ties everything together was *chef’s kiss.* loved the story and would recommend!

This follows three generations (1619, 1942, present day) of women from one family. I was not expecting abuse to be so involved in all three storylines. And I'm not entirely sure how I feel about this book's exploration of pregnancies for legacy sake. I don't know. I definitely have to think about this one some more.

Please be warned that every women's storyline heavily deals with sexual assault and violence and the resulting trauma, as well as traumatic, unplanned/forced pregnancies (as well as self-induced losses)._annika__'s review against another edition
