Hold Fast by Eliza MacArthur
4.75
adventurous emotional hopeful fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

I was so invested in these two characters although I was VERY STRESSED by the third act conflict. Eliza does an incredible job with reflecting Una’s journey as the survivor of SA, and Ewan’s battles with anxiety. The plot is VERY SCOTTISH with clan conflicts. I also really enjoyed the depictions of birth, breastfeeding and early motherhood in this although do mind the CW on this as well as the note bc the depictions of these events are very detailed and realistic.
