we love women in stem but i was bored when reading this, usually i read nonfiction regarding topics that i know im interested in reading about but i got this from a thrift store and went in blind not knowing this was straight nonfiction like i knew it was based on the real life stories but i thought this was like a novelization of the movie cause i got the movie cover. 

in conclusion its not the book its me id recommend it for people who are already curious on the subject

Interesting backstory but a lot of different people involved. Writing was very dry as well

With out black women we may not have ever made it to space. From WWII airplanes to landing on the moon. Also King was a Treky.

I have to commend Margot Lee Shetterly for the amount of research she did for this book. I am a big fan of the movie so I knew I had to read this book. History has never been my strong suit so it was a little challenging to get through this book. It reads very much like a text book and is missing the personal touch the movie has. The author focuses a lot on the events of the time (which I can see how that is important for context) but I wanted to hear more personal stories from the main women.
I would be interested in rereading but really taking my time and going through all the historical events and people mentioned.
