Captivating and heart-wrenching!
An absolutely captivating listen that I didn’t want to turn off. The back-and-forth between different time periods kept things interesting and hooked me in. The way the timelines of Grace and Selena started to connect made the story even more exciting and powerful. It really brought home the feeling that we’re all connected to those who’ve gone through similar struggles before us. The story of Grace was heart-wrenching, and I couldn’t imagine the helplessness women must have felt back then. The way people—especially other women, men, and so-called religious figures—could manipulate stories for such destructive purposes was truly shocking. I found myself crying, feeling helpless to do anything for Grace. But I really appreciated the strength and perseverance of women that shone through in the end. A deeply emotional and thought-provoking story.

Just… meh.
Reader doesn’t really try doing different voices, so there’s some confusion in scenes with multiple women speaking. The dialogue is also pretty bad in places, and the story just plods and plods along. Don’t waste your time.
