What a beautiful story so far! The character growth is amazing, the empowerment and sisterhood so beautiful and the depiction of pain and abuse so clear and unadorned. I also love the way sexuality is portrayed in all its shapes, some beautiful and curious, other cruel and horrible due to patriarchy and oppression. Such a good book with strong female characters, I'm excited to read on :)))

THESE WOMEN ARE FIRE! The empowerment, the way they expose the ridiculous nature of patriarchy and LAUGH in their husband's and abuser's faces, is ICONIC. This feels like female rage and revenge, however, it's much more elegant - it's peak feminism. If I'll ever have just an ounce of their grace, I'll be able to die in peace. Amen
