Cute story with three interwoven timelines, darkened by misogyny and abortions. Nothing really surprising in the plot.

Look, I’m not a huge fan of SA or DV as plot devices but for some reason I felt it worked here. Just my opinion, and I’m sure others can and will feel differently.

This book tells the stories of three women along the same family line, separated by hundreds of years. Each of the women were extra connected to nature, able to connect with animals, bugs and birds as well as heal with herbs and other plants. Each one of them had to deal with difficult people, cruel men, and heartbreaking situations. Of course there were accusations of witchcraft. Men need to be happy women are just looking for equality and not revenge, because we have suffered so much over the years.

It started off really strong... then it went downhill... then it picked back up again! Another "man bad, woman good" story, which I don't mind but it did get a bit overwhelming with the abuse sometimes. It was more graphic than I thought it would be, and a few scenes in particular made me feel sick. Overall, I enjoyed it, but it was a bit heavy on the melancholy side, more than I thought it would be. But yeah, pretty okay book, probably wouldn’t reread though.
