Ended up loving this book! I'lI admit, it became a bit tedious and I considered giving up but I persevered and am so glad. Lively can get a little bogged down in detail so you have to be patient. This delightful story of three women, their history, their decisions, their spunk, was enlightening. They are mothers and daughters first, and partners second. Loved the description of social history along with chronologic history, the circumstances that formed their choices and decisions. I confess I was tempted to make a character chart toward the end! Overall, very enjoyable.
