Book Review

(by- Linda )

Beverly is the typical Trad wife - she cares for herself, ensuring she always looks good, supports her husband, and raises their children. Then, she catches her husband cheating. So, she digs deep and charges forward, carving out a new life for herself and her children, brainstorming how to support herself (without a degree or experience), and get even with her husband for his betrayal - deciding on a bold move.

Beverly lands a political job- working for Michael Landau, who's running against the current Senator - her husband, Larry, is the campaign manager for the Senator's team. It's perfect!

Watching Beverly morph into a strong, independent woman is so gratifying. She never falters in her confidence, and although she's living in the 1960s- it feels so current.

This is a thought-provoking and fun exploration of relationships. It's about women breaking free of restraints to become independent, finding their power, changing the way the game is played, and rewriting their own stories. I loved it.
