This really surprised me as i didn't expect to love it so much! It has different plots running through and deals with women's rights and LGBTQIA and how different it was at the turn of the century. Highly recommend to students.

Enlightening book about the suffragette movement. Two of the main characters were gay which added another dimension to the story and one was rich and the other dirt poor so the reader was getting the fight for suffrage from a few perspectives.

I loved this book as it featured bright young girls from very different backgrounds who all wanted to change their society. The historical parts were very interesting but I didnĀ“t feel that it was trying to educate me!

I think this is an excellent story with lots of twists and turns. It was interesting because the reader saw the story from three different perspectives.

A great book about suffragettes and WW1. It does contain some inappropriate events. Recommended 10+
