This book's chapters are shared between a sentient island, the story and the transcript from the courtroom proceedings.

Though I love the idea of a book having an island as a main character, these chapters felt jarring amongst the stilted courtroom narrative and thus rather spoiled.

The story as a whole just felt a little stale? The ending was very clear from the start and nothing really happened. Again, the ideas behind it of being a woman are worthwhile but the way they're portrayed was a little dry. I really struggled to finish this and I'm sure I'll swiftly forget it.
