So... I wanted to like this book. I kind of had an assumption I would enjoy it. But despite the nice art and average writing, something just felt fundamentally off about this comic. So, since I'm trying to err on the side of less stars (rather then more) I've ended up giving it 2 stars. It was OK, but I don't think I will ever recommend it to anyone because at best I don't think many people would find this terribly interesting - which is a complete and total shame IMHO.

Despite the fact that this was publish back in 2014 I obviously read it in a post Suffragette movie world and I must admit that all the stupid shit that that movie stirred up did have an affect on how I saw this comic. Do I have a perfect solution for what they could have done instead? No. There are a few different options, and certainly more when you consider that they character in this comic was completely fictional.

That said, I do think that my feelings that this was the EASIEST story to tell are still justified. Overall it seemed so cookie-cutter really. Hitting all the points that most suffragette media does. I really haven't read that much about British suffragettes before but I still felt like I had read this story a million times before.

They certainly did not win any points for making the main thrust of the comic be about a romance plot-line! It just felt so strangely cliche.

The predominantly gray-tone watercolor was very nice though. I hadn't seen it before and I enjoyed the style of drawing as well. Probably my favorite part of this whole book.
