HEY hey heyyyyy I have started the book and i'm already about half way through. I think this book is fantastic. Its almost like a history lesson...regarding the first walk on the moon, how sexist our society was back then, and how interracial couples were big no no's back then. Its interesting and i cant wait to read more.
I can't help it (too much time on planes). I finished up the book last week and am dying to talk about it before I forget about what I read. Good point Carly. I was a little nervous about choosing this book out and it took a little bit longer to read than most, but I think that it was because there was some more interesting topics included in it. Some of which were pretty controversial at the time.
I'll be honest, when i first started reading it I was afraid that I wouldnt be able to connect with the characters. After reading a little bit I am totally hooked. The narrator seems to be the one character that is probably in the middle of being conservative/liberal in her views. I feel like she is in a constant tug of war of what her role is as a woman/mother/wife. Its very interesting. I feel like i'm reading a sociology book or woman studies book.
Hey Ladies, Sorry I've been MIA from the board. Last week was absolute madness at work preparing for a big meeting, but this week is quiet and I'm really starting to get into the book. I will post more tomorrow and catch up!
HEY hey heyyyyy
