Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC!
(The ARC provided was a sample of the first 130 pages of the comic so this review only focuses on those pages)
I really enjoy period pieces that focus on women "rebelling" or finding little pockets of freedom within their circumstances, so this story was right up my alley. I also greatly enjoyed how she went from hating Sahara to seeking her company after the girl showed HER interest as a PERSON, instead of as a woman or wife. It was really interesting to see the dynamics of two very different cultures and mindsets clashing with each other.
Personally, I was hoping for a romance between Sahara and Amelie. I have no way of knowing if there will be one since this is only a preview, but the blushing moments when Amelie looks at her give me a bit of hope, so if you're looking for some historical fiction lesbians this miiiiight be something worth giving a read?
