Apparently they’re making ‘Hamnet’ into a film?

I’m torn about it. On the one hand, the book was beautifully written, and I did enjoy it overall.

On the other, there was a bit of a ‘not like other girls’ thread shot through it. And that’s not even about her mystical powers or whatever. It’s just, of course Agnes isn’t Christian, her mother and her never wear/don’t like hoods, she’s apparently the only woman in the town who’s good with herbs, and of course she hates the usual traditions around child birth and has to go off into the woods. Cumulatively, that’s… not great imo

There might even be more examples than that, but those are what I can remember off the top of my head having read it several years ago. Again, I thought it was good, well-written historical fiction and I liked it overall. But this was annoying to me, and honestly a shame
