4.5 rounded up. I could've done without the predictable and slightly cheesy ending but ooooomg this was so good. It reminded me a lot of The Nightingale. Somewhat slow to get into, but about 40% of the way into it, I was so hooked. There was so much that took place that I've never heard of. Ive been deep diving online to learn more since I finished it last night.

 Incredible story of being a daughter, sister, friend, wife, mother, grandmother.

I loved the beginning. I got a little bogged down in the middle and then the ending saved it.
