She recognized the prejudices against women in her time, and although she wanted to meet her family’s expectations, she also had no qualms about being ambitious and dedicated. ![]() Her curiosity and drive to help her community was so honest and open-hearted. This novel was very character driven, and I enjoyed reading from Willa’s perspective.
