After finishing this book, I feel disturbed and inspired. Definitely recommend.

Not as good as Big Little Lies, but engrossing and entertaining.
Didn't adore it but definitely made me smile.
Fascinating story that I knew so little about. 10/10 would recommend.
I was surprised that I didn't love. None-the-less, it's an important book.
This is just written so poorly and the plot was predictable from the beginning.
I wanted to like this book but I couldn't finish it. Very slow and didn't connect with the characters.
Definitely better than the series ❤ Fabulous beach read.
I'm starting my journey with Tarot and couldn't be more excited!
"Culture does not make people. People make culture. If it is true that the full humanity of women is not our culture, then we can and must make it our culture."
"I don't know what the answer is, precisely, but I know it starts when we stop blaming Obama or Bush or faceless companies and ask ourselves what we can do to make things better."
"Someday in our future it may be possible for women everywhere not to be restricted to those roles society deems natural, God-given, or appropriately feminine. This possible future could only expand the human experience and be liberating to men and women alike. And it will be interesting to all. Because, maybe what Azita once said about why she was glad to have been born a girl holds some truth."
"I continue to believe that history matters."
This book is about lives lived out on the borderlands, lives for which the central interpretative devices of the culture don't quite work. It is about the stories we make for ourselves, and the social specificity of our understanding of those stories.
