Brilliant beginning till the end!

I love the story line. Well then and it is a good point/topic to discuss as a family as well.

Excellent book! Very relatable.

Great book

Great story. I didn't realize the women's struggle from an adult point of view. I was a child at the time. I can't believe how recent our rights as women are.

I appreciate the friendship of the 4 main characters and their struggles against the norms of the early 60s. The story was somewhat predictable however, I enjoyed it to the end when we learn about the characters decades later.

Excellent’!

Lighthearted fun read!

Rating: 8/10 Set against the backdrop of the 1960s, it vividly captures a time when women were struggling to be more than just what society expected them to be. The heart of the story is all about four women who start a book club and discover themselves and the power of female friendship and solidarity along the way What I loved most was how the book highlighted that taking brave steps, no matter how small, truly makes a difference. It was such a great reminder that small wins eventually lead to much bigger victories if we just keep at it and keep trying. While it did feel a few chapters too long and hit a few predictable beats along the way, the spirit of the book kept me hooked.

Every woman needs to read this. Teenager on up!

Good book. I enjoyed the characters and the storyline.

Great characters, good story flow, enjoyable to read. A bit predictable.

Light and sweet! As much as they make it hard for us but ohh how lovely it is to be a woman

The characters were well developed but The book was very monotone with no climax and stayed that way until the end.

Loved the story and characters.

Really enjoyed this! Reminded me of my mom..

I loved fact that women characters and feminism played strong roles. Hard to find that in fiction these days.

Enjoyed it all the way through.

Really enjoyed the last half

So, I liked the book at the beginning. It was intriguing and I liked the characters. I was rooting for them. But near the end, the book became more of a historical fiction, almost like a young adult book, where I felt the author was trying to educate me about important events in American history. Not really what I was expecting at that point in the book. And then, the book seemed to switch again. Almost as if someone was reading it and told the author, you're really making this anti-man, you need to really make one of these guys a hero. So then we learn the long drawn out history of one of the characters and her husband's life until past retirement. I honestly grew bored. I think this book was about an hour or so too long. It could have neatly wrapped up before the historical fiction part. Not terrible, but not an intriguing ending whatsoever.

Interesting read. Kept my attention. Great characters & tidy ending

A great character driven story!

It is inspiring and although set in a particular time, timeless is it's message for individuals to pursue their dreams and goals.

A great read for all the troublesome women struggling to find their place in the different chapters of life. I added it to my list of re-reads, and the narrator was outstanding. Can't praise it enough!

It's just meh. Meandering storyline that doesn't really build to anything.

First read in a long tome that didn’t have me wandering. A good girl- power read.

fabulous book
