I enjoyed this book. I found the history woven in interesting and informative and particularly like stories of female friendship as described by women for women. I agree with the view of many reviews that it would have been nice to hear from Homa's point of view earlier, so the switching narratives felt more intentional. The writing style is quite straightforward but once I started I didn't want to put it down.
