This was alright, but didn’t especially click for me. I actually enjoyed the quick Fairy Tale for Feminist snippets more than anything.

Rarely when a book jumps back and forth to past and back to the present, do I enjoy the method of story telling. Unfortunately that was my biggest hang up on Saskia’s story.

There’s been an influx of stories and novels investigating issues of consent and power dynamics within relationships. This novel does both. An inheritance gives the main character an opportunity to re-examine a relationship that was problematic. I really enjoyed the story despite it being a very serious topic. Sadly I think a lot of women have stories like this.
