Weyward


 
“Weyward” by Emelia Hart
Published by St. Martin’s Press
 
This is 3 generations (not consecutive) of women, each told in their own point of view.  In each story, there are abusive male characters and strong female characters.  I didn’t find it to be a feel-good book, but I can see where it would be empowering for some.  I can also see where it would be triggering for some due to the abuse and pregnancy issues (to be polite).  For me, the storyline was OK but the writing was better.  It was fairly slow moving but towards the end, each story became more intense and more of a page turner.  I do recommend it; I just don’t know that it was worth all the hype it received.
 
Finished 11/29/24 – 3/5 stars
