I won’t lie, this book had a slow start and the first 100 pages I was wondering if this would be a disappointment. I’m glad to say that I really got into it after that. There were so many times I laughed out loud as well as times I nearly cried. I love reading about women empowering women and stories like this need to be told. Because even though this is set in the 60’s, people today still need to hear how fierce and capable women are.
