I think Diamant meant this book to empower women and showcase the strength and bond between mothers and daughters and their will to thrive, even through secret traditions, but it was a hard miss.
The character development was profound, the pacing was excellent, the plot was well constructed, the tale was convincingly told, and the dialogue was realistic.
The characters are well-fleshed out, unique, and have original personalities that interact excitingly, leaving you keen to know about their latest adventure.
