Great review Jill...I second nearly everything she said! Though I rated it higher...also only because I finished it. It was very difficult to follow the first few chapters, and sometimes the constant sex garble was frustrating...I can't tell you how many times I had to reread a sentence! BUT It educated me in a whole new way. I'm very aware of women's rights now and historically...so that is saying something. Don't read it for the sex (of which there is plenty)...read it for a new understanding! A very personal understanding, both as based on a true story, and imagining how it would have felt. We are fortunate to be in this century and this country...for all its flaws. I do recommend the book for the historical perspective and if you like courageous women. It left me thinking.
