Whisper Network by Chandler Baker was a dive into the struggles of women. While I found this plot interesting I had some struggles with the story as a whole. Each character kind of felt like a caricature, which made it hard for me to fully relate to any of them. I also struggled with the time period this was suppose to be set. It felt like the author wanted it to be set in present time, but some of the descriptions and things the characters did felt dated. I also found it a bit predictable and was able to figure out the “plot twists” pretty easily.

What I did enjoy about this story was the different perspectives around women accusing men of sexual harassment or assault in the workplace. I think understanding these perspectives is important for all parties. I also liked the little “we” viewpoints at the beginning of each chapter. While I think this book’s topic is very important I don’t feel like was implemented in the best way. As a side note, several of my book club members felt like this was very similar to Big Little Lies, which I have never read or seen.
