The Weight of Ink
by Rachel Kadish
A beautifully written book that toggles between 17th Century London and 2001. A scholar and a student are called to look at a cache of papers found hidden in a staircase. They are battling both time and other researchers to make some incredible discoveries about Ester Velasquez and the community of Jews in London. Nothing appeals to me more than historical fiction with strong female characters breaking from their traditional roles. It is also full of early thought and theory about the role of women in society. Highly recommended for those interested in historical fiction.
