I went into this expecting hidden figures/smart women doing smart things.. and while I go that, I also think this book may have focused on the trivial side of the woman’s lives a little more than needed. While I loved the social commentary on how being a woman in the 60’s was not always a great time, and how that really impacted your career opportunities (thank god that isn’t an issue for female-identifying people anymore, lol!), it did end up feeling like filler.

Overall though, I think this was a great introduction to some remarkable woman who do not get recognized for their contribution or achievements nearly enough.
