This book was soo heartbreaking. It told a story from the main characters perspective in such a way that I felt I could really put myself in her shoes and experience the world as she experienced it. It helped me understand just how few rights women had (and in many parts of the world today, still have) especially when it comes to love. I wish the overlapping timelines were explored a bit more and the ending felt a bit rushed to be honest / left a lot to be answered. But the concept was good.
