Writing felt very stilted. There was a lot of flat “She felt this way because xyz” - no lyricism to the storytelling.

Thanks to the publisher for an advanced copy of this book to read,
A look at 1920s New York, through the eyes of 4 very different women who form life long friendships after the war. The world is changing and they are starting to have more rights than ever. Things are not easy though, being a woman they still need to try to juggle a marriage, a career and babies
These women bond through their experiences, and are there for each other no matter what. Dorothy, Peggy, Winnie and Jane make their way through a new world, they are strong and powerful.
It was a fascinating look at a different kind of life to the one that we live these days. If it hadn’t been for women like these then we may not have some of the freedoms that we are lucky to have now. Thankfully, things have changed a lot.

Very good. Follows four women in 1920's Manhattan. The women are all real historical figures which gives the story a good grounding and dosen't disappoint. Full of twists and turns.
