The book is very slow paced and difficult to get into it. I had a hard time keeping all the characters and their relationships to one another straight for the first few chapters.

I loved the switching timelines and POVs between Whitsun girls, mainly told from Daisy during the present, and their ancestor Jane in the 1800s! I also enjoyed the parallels between both POVs of navigating love, sex, desire, and pregnancy.

Overall an enjoyable and interesting story, I didn’t love it or hate it, the novel was just average. I’m glad to have read it but probably won’t remember it. I’d recommend for anyone who enjoys character driven stories with explorations of complex issues/emotions!
