My Review: ★★★★★

I couldn’t put this down. Amazing story, characters, setting. What a tragic and lonely life this child/girl/woman had. And my goodness, what a brilliant mind she had despite going to school one measly day of her life! The devil was in the details and this story was so lush with them, so vivid, so emotionally written and executed. This is one to reread when you’re in a slump. Perfect for a book club read. I can just hear the gushing my local book club ladies would do.
