Powerful and thought provoking

Regardless of your gender/sexuality, download this now. This is an incredible audiobook I never knew I needed. It’s a powerful example of feminism through the written and spoken word. It made me ‘ugly’ cry.

Fantastic

I couldn't stop listening. It made me laugh and cry, agree and contemplate. Fantastic content and great delivery. The use of letters made it really accessible and a joy to listen to. I wish there was more.

it would have been brilliant...

...if there had been a few more stories that balanced it out a bit. for example, coming from a home where a women, my mum, withheld affection and was (is) and alcoholic, I'd have liked to have heard more stories in the first episode where the mother/daughter relationship WASN'T perfect and where love doesn't prosper but where strong women resulted regardless. I liked hearing the other episodes though, especially the letters to myself and the letters to future women. it gave me a lot to think about. At 38 years old I have a pretty good idea who I am and where I'm going, it might have been nice to hear a few more older voices speaking to their younger selves, perhaps.

There is more to explore here. I hope, if there is another series commissioned, these ideas will be developed more and we get to hear more stories of survival.

Audible, please consider making this a longform?

Hearing women speak after a lifetime of men's voices feels like exhaling. Please make more!

Beautifully executed series

Listened back to back as I was enjoying it so much. Loved how each episode had a different theme and they were all so different but complemented eahh other perfectly.
