I was given this book when I retired. I know my friend thought it would appeal because I am a great lover of books as were Rostenberg and Stern. I also thought I would like this book a lot. I remember when their book, Old Books, Rare Friends was published. I am pretty sure that I read that and enjoyed the stories Rostenberg and Stern had to tell about the rare book business.
This book is more about their personal lives - what their parents were like, their schooling, old boyfriends and travel. All of that was fine, but the authors really did not catch my attention. I wanted to know more about the book business.
I think this memoir would be excellent for readers interested in women's lives than for folks interested in books and reading. Rostenberg and Stern lived during interesting times and they were unusual for their times.
