challenging dark mysterious fast-paced

A Season of Monstrous Conceptions is a unique entertaining story.  It had a lot of historical references and was not boring.  I like this story was not long and drawn out.  Fast paced, but thorough in characterization of Sarah as well.  You definitely get the notion women’s roles during this time period was not a respected one and women made hard choices to survive, even including marriage.  I like the midwives were ambitious.  Overall, a great story I am happy to have read.  I received as a netgalley ARC.
