As I begin to create a list of my top ten reads of 2017, I believe this one is going to make it. If not, definitely an honorable mention. What a nuanced story of an unlikely friendship; two women of different ages, backgrounds, education, and class meeting on the beach in Lyme, England in the 1820s, linked together by their love of ‘curries’ (fossils). Compassion was easy to come by for every female character in the story, and even for a few of the men.
