A review by roguecoyote
The Woman at the Front by Lecia Cornwall

sad tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

2.5

After the 500th time reading "you can't do x you're a woman" I was rolling my eyes in boredom - like okay we get it already, can we please move on. Not high art and struggles with repetitive sequences (see above) but otherwise a light, fun read for historical fiction fans.
