I really enjoyed reading this book. I didn't know anything about her before reading this, so I learned a lot, which for me is great! I like how the author centered Marjorie and he choices and life. If she had been alive today she would be running her family's company rather than having it be run by her husbands as proxys. I'm sad that she had such bad luck with men, but I think it makes sense because she was a formidable woman who wasn't just going to submit.
