What I Liked: Historical fiction focusing on career women in Washington D.C. during the 1950's McCarthy era.
What I Disliked: This read as a set of short stories, rather than the style of the author's other historical fiction. Grace's story should have been a stand alone novel.
Our group loved this book! We especially enjoyed the information in the back where she shared the historical events and people behind the people and events in the book.
This was my first Kate Quinn book I have read and I will definitely read more of hers. I was interested in this book because I wanted to step away from the WWII books for awhile. Change it up, so to speak. I enjoyed reading about each woman’s life, however, I felt sometimes it was a bit too long and I wanted Quinn to get to the point. Other than that, I loved the story and the time period!
