I was expecting this book to be a slap in the face, but it was really more like a slow burn, and before I knew it I had become a blazing inferno. I burned with anger, fear and shame and I cried for every wrong done. Difficult to believe, but I think I cried even harder for all the rights, I was so grateful for every one of them. 
 This was a period of history with so much turmoil and violence, that perhaps the individual lives get forgotten. This is a beautiful tribute to so many amazing women who do not always get the recognition they deserve. 
 I recommend that everyone read this book, especially if it's something that makes you uncomfortable. You're not supposed to be comfortable.
