Pretty interesting and dramatic to read. Not fond of the narrator’s parenting style, or violent inner thoughts and rationalisations. Fun to read and judge though.

I loved this book! It was beautifully written. Watch your trigger warnings for rape and death by hanging. Those scenes are graphic and brutal.

This was the April Book Club pick at my work and it's not the type of story I would have ever picked up on my own. But I did enjoy it. I loved the authenticity of the history, even though women had it so rough back then. And I loved the mystery throughout. Idk if I'd willingly dive into this genre again on my own but it was an interesting read and kept me engaged.

The most perfect revenge scene I've ever read.
