This book follows a group of women lawyers working at a firm in Texas. After their companies CEO dies, they realize the person next in line to take that position is a man in which they all have mixed feelings about. 

This book covers sexism in the workplace and sexual harassment against women extensively and it was anything but subtle. They throw the themes of feminism and women sticking together in your face. Which, to be clear, I am ALL for those themes, I'd just like them to be conveyed in a more nuanced way. 

I liked the story however I felt like it dragged on far too long. The ending was satisfying  but the journey was a but of a snooze.
