I believe the past has a lot to teach us. By identifying and empathisizing with a protagonist, historical fiction deepens the context and sheds light onto our modern day motivations. I wrote my women's empowermentt novel, Poster Girls, because I wanted to read it.

As with many women's historical fiction books, I love to see myself and learn from a protagonist, following along in her footsteps as she navigates the highs and lows of a tenuous and new journey. Strong characters, ones that change us by the last page, show us pathways to get through the rough patches in life. ...more

At least, not all the same. And why should we be? The Lord made us different for good reasons. If we’re all roaming the earth, equal—the exact same strengths and weaknesses—then one plus one can only equal two. Different people, coming together with different qualities, means one plus one can be greater than two.”

In the words of Rudyard Kipling: “If history were told in the form of story, it would never be forgotten.” The authors take this quote to heart. This story is well-researched and well-told. I would have been a better history student with books like th ...more
