pick3.5/5
Finished my 1st book for #24B4Monday this morning! I loved learning about the lives of these extraordinary women. But, I felt the writing was too dry and wished there was more “art form” in the storytelling because at times I did feel like I was reading a textbook. Ha! Can‘t wait to FINALLY watch the movie now. 🤣

tpixie The movie is great. I started reading the book, but I also felt the same way as you did , so I put it aside and have not picked it back up yet. I would like to try to again sometime. 5y
squirrelbrain I also felt that this was rather dry - such a shame as it could have been so interesting.... 5y

nelehelen @squirrelbrain @LogiKitty yes! It had the makings of a 5 star book. But sadly it wasn‘t. Still, a wonderful story that should be told.. i really wanted it to be fantastic. 5y
