Matilda McGee liked Domenica Galluccio's review of The Marriage Portrait:
The Marriage Portrait by Maggie O'Farrell
"A richly woven tale and reimagined take on the short life of Lucrezia de Medici. Written with a more modern perspective that drives home the fine line women teetered upon, mostly at the whims of men, and the pressures and fear that came with being a possession to be moved about a chessboard for family status and gain. "

A commentary on the ever-growing anthology of epically reckless and morally bankrupt individuals whose utter lack of scruples do wonders for the soul—assuming your soul thrives on despair.

Matilda McGee liked Sarah's review of The Women on Platform Two:
The Women on Platform Two by Laura Anthony
"Great fiction writing about a very non-fictitious part of Ireland's history. Emotional, inspiring, and (perhaps unfortunately) still quite relevant to our current times. "
