It is a book about women and work and friendships, written by an author who has written many novels, Joanna Trollope. I actually struggled to keep going in the book because these people are not too interesting all the time, but ultimately, it is a good read. It is my opinion that women are not hired wired to take economic responsibility. They must think through their actions and decisions, and that is what that book is all about.
The older character, Eleanor, is newly retired and makes several points that seem accurate to me. This is not a must read book but it deals with subjects that are pertinent today. The question as to what makes women happy is never really addressed but is certainly out in the real world. I am not rushing to read other books written by Joanna Trollope but this book is a thoughtful book about different types of women today.
