A review by booklover000
The Chelsea Girls by Fiona Davis

emotional hopeful tense slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? No

4.0

This one’s definitely a slow burn, but the characters and setting outweighed the pacing for me! This is essentially a look at women’s roles and opportunities in 1950s NYC during McCarthyism.  It’s about friendship, political pressure, the arts, and freedom.
