Kath, you should try MWC's The Wednesday Sisters. I'm not trying to brown-nose, but I considered that to be a chick-lit book that wasn't as annoying as most of them seem to be. I don't like smarmy women in person, and definitely NOT in my literature, but she did a very good job of making them ...

I read Wednesday Sisters and loved the way the characters grew and changed during those chaotic days of the 60s and 70s. Stories written about that era always take me back to my own years growing up. I have never demonstrated for women's rights (or anything else for that matter). I guess I ...
