Set in 1952 and 2016, this book switches the year almost every chapter. It follows the journey of a journalist writing a story on a young woman attending secretarial school in New York. I overall thought this was a good read. It was a little slow in some parts, but it kept me interested enough to finish. A bit of a plot twist toward the end.
