Utterly amazing character development
From page one you can't help but feel badly for Rose. You meet a woman in an abusive marriage who is being treated like garbage and throughout the story she becomes an incredibly strong woman. This story has a significant amount of "King" flair that unfortunately detracts from the story. The growth of the main character is the highlight of the book.

Searching for missing woman and working undercover in the sweat shops of 1901 New York is enough to keep Molly very busy. Can she find the woman while also forming an early union? The historical detail, characters, and plot all come together for a great book.

I cannot begin to explain how much I love this movie. I must have watched it atleast 20 times already! I am in love with Wonder Woman, she is such a strong female lead and that’s something DC really needed! The story line is brilliant and the only slight draw back would be the predictable CGI villain! However I would watch this for Wonder Woman and Etta Candy alone!

Jennifer Chiaverini’s historical fiction novel about Augusta Ada King-Noel, Countess of Lovelace, takes us back to 19th century England, to discover a woman whose mathematical insights may have been instrumental in making the essential the connections that led to today’s computers. You can read my review of this book about the unfortunately short life of Lady Lovelace here.
