I kind of wish I had read a physical copy instead since this book has a LOT of characters and I found myself asking “who”??? And having to rewind the audio quite a few time. This book shines the light on multigenerational trauma as well as being a mystery/thriller. A solid 4 star read for me. I received an ALC of this title, all opinions are my own. ...more

It was exactly what I was looking for on this busy Saturday. Sami has a lot of history to unpack.

Gosh am I a sucker for a historical fiction book with a kick butt FMC. And boy does this book deliver. I binged the whole audios book in 1 day. I founGosh am I a sucker for a historical fiction book with a kick butt FMC. And boy does this book deliver. I binged the whole audios book in 1 day. I found myself rooting for Jeanne and her crew. This is not pick me girl energy….this is you came for me and my family so now I will kill everybody to get to you. To imagine that this is based on the life of a real woman (obviously not historically accurate), just makes it even more compelling. When the world is as crazy as it atm ……we could all use a little Jeanne in our life! 5/5 stars for me. I received and ALC of this title, all opinions are my own.
This was a very long book. Told from the viewpoints of multiple women and one man it discusses how the world might struggle to adapt if 90% of men dieThis was a very long book. Told from the viewpoints of multiple women and one man it discusses how the world might struggle to adapt if 90% of men died suddenly. Women would have to be retrained so that even basic things could happen, such as plumbing, trash pickup, electrical work and the military. TW: this book does not shy away from death, including the death of infants and children. The chapter that follows a shift in the maternity ward was undeniably one of the hardest for me. Honestly, the only stories I really became invested in were Frances, Toby and Amanda. And those alone were enough to make me have to finish this book. 3.5 out of 5 stars for me. ...more
