Susan, Linda, Nina & Cokie: The Extraordinary Story of the Founding Mothers of NPR by Lisa Napoli
2.0
The topic/plot of the story is interesting, but the structure could use some work. I'm not sure how I would improve on it myself, as all four women did work at the organization together, but it does feel like it jumps around a bit between the leads. In addition to the pacing - the epilogue is not an epilogue, at least until the final half of the epilogue. I'm not sure if this is a formatting error of the digital copy of the book; or if this is intentional. If it's intentional, it's definitely not what I would call an epilogue.
In addition, and possibly the biggest criticism I have - why are the men so prevalent in a book about the founding mothers of NPR? It makes sense in some context due to the important roles they had within the organization and their lives, but it was done in a way I felt distracted readers from the focus of the women's lives.
