Why read it?

1 author picked A Woman's Place as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I loved this book because it reminded me of how brutally the Suffragettes were treated, even by their own families.

I loved the history behind the story, which included World War I and how women looked after their families in a time of great poverty.

At times, I was angry for the heroine, but I loved how her fortitude and resilience to survive made me feel empowered. In the end, it was an uplifting story of hope and love.
