Blackbirds Sing by Aiki Flinthart

I received a free copy through Netgalley in return for an honest review.

Well researched history is interwoven with magic in this book, in such a way that it all feels very realistic. I felt like I was there, watching from a small distance, instead of reading the story. I could almost smell the stench of the London streets, and hear the sounds.

Life was hard for women in medieval London. But together they made change happen, more than any man could have ever guessed.

The short stories were interwoven in such a way that they did not feel as short stories as much as one story from different perspectives. That the characters I started to care about from the start came back throughout the book made reading it much more enjoyable to me.
