I adored this book! I listened to the Audiobook and tried my best to savor it even though I was tempted to get a hard copy so I could finish it in one sitting. I was inspired, horrified, and moved by the stories of women in the 60s and the challenges they overcame in order for us to have more equality today. In a season when it feels like hard won equal rights are being challenged, it was a good reminder to stay strong and stay in touch with your own self and needs. I heard there is a limited series being produced and I cannot wait.
