Lillian Boxfish Takes a Walk by Kathleen Rooney

3.0

This was both a fun and somewhat somber read. We follow a woman back and forth in time between the start of her career as an ad writer in the 1930s for Macy's and well into her retirement. It all takes place in NYC and you get to learn about the pressures and challenges of being a career driven person, a wife, a mother, a person with mental illness, and a friend.

I loved the main character's personality and the dialog was very fun. I gave 3 stars because, while I enjoyed the story, it does not stand out to me as a "must read."
