This one was a little more dense even though there were fewer pages than what I normally read. Based on a true story that was so bizzare that I had to go out and do my own research just to clarify that I’d read it correctly! The writing style is different than a lot of novels and is set up to be similar to someone’s journal entries which took a while to get used to. It’s also set after the major precipitating factor and is about how these women plan to proceed with their lives and the consequences of their choices.
Dark and impactful. We may not live in a society as repressive as the Mennonite colony of Bolivia, but we still do not have the same rights as men. We still want our children to be safe, to think, and to be safe ourselves.
