fullness of time according to the understanding angles of every person may have various expressions eventhough its general terminology stands unchanged and it is about the reach of time towards something which has been expected for a long or a short period of time irrespective of its value and type.

I really enjoy historical fiction and appreciate when it is accurately done. Your review tells me that the historical parts are accurate and that the characters and story line are also well-written. For me to want to read a story, both elements need to be there and you have definitely piqued my interest to read this story. Thanks!

I agree. Historical fiction isn't a genre I read very often. It does sound interesting, though, after reading your review.

This book sounds very interesting and thoughtful. I loved your review and I am glad that you are highlighting this book for women's history month. I also enjoyed your input about the current state of women's rights and connecting it with the past. I hope to read this book soon.

Definitely a good choice to help focus on women's rights!

The book sounds interesting but the title is misleading to me. "in the Fullness of Time" is a Biblical reference to the coming of Jesus Christ. I was surprised at the content of this book but thought there needed to be a clarification - or is this simple the prerogative of an author?

I have recently started enjoying historical fiction and I think I just found two more books to add to my "want to read" list.

I love historical fiction, and this sounds like an empowering read! Considering recent events, this sounds like an important book for women to read to remind them of what it takes to earn and then maintain the rights we deserve. I look forward to checking this out, and thanks for the great review!
