This was a thoroughly enjoyable book for all of the female characters, set in the backdrop of historical events in post-war McCarthy-era Washington DC. I particularly enjoyed each character getting their own back-storyline. The independent women (for the time) helped propel the story through a variety of issues, with their own personalities. I both listened to the audiobook and read - and frankly, because of this, didn’t rally have to put it down, and could just plow through and enjoy this marvelous story. The audiobook had an interview with the author and the narrator, which I highly recommend.
What a great book and so glad it was picked for our book club. Great characters and some good history lessons.
When our book club met we each bought a recipe from the book including the drinks!!
