The Bookclub for Troublesome Women by Marie Bostwick

 



Its the 1960s four very different personalities join a book club and four very deep friendships are forged. Each one had strengths and weaknesses, and it is unbelievable that even in the 1960s the amount of power men had over women’s lifestyles, their attitudes, definitely their finances. 

The Feminine Mystique was the first book that the club read. It opened up vistas for many and for these four it struck a chord that they could be doing more for themselves, their families and their marriages by living the way they wanted to, and not a facade dictated by society, mainly men.

The story about how four women supported each other through crisis after crisis, forming a unique group giving strength to carry out dreams, and live a life they wanted to. 

I was engrossed in reading this book, cheering madly from the sidelines.
