'I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed reading this. I've read it a few times now, and have felt more emotional with each read. It's really quite moving. It made me think of my mum and my relationship with her, and I guess her relationship with her mother. And if only this was actually how society treated women/girls as they grow, things might not feel so confusing!' Georgia Bowers Author of Mark of the Wicked
