Review of 'Conjure Women' on 'Goodreads'

The book is meant to be the stories of three women woven together, but the Varina and May Belle stories weren't explored nearly as deeply. And even Rue's story, I didn't feel like we really got to know her. Bean was clearly important, but also felt like an afterthought? For me, while the idea of the book was a good one, it just wasn't as powerful as it could have been.
