Well told story with solid ideas, but sometimes difficult to follow the time and place shifts. Overall a good book.

The story drags on and swings from maudlin to exaggerated giddiness the entire book. It targets the powerful, wealthy men who were able to manipulate, use and abuse the women who unfortunately loved them.

I am pleased to see more women getting the upper hand in such relationships, standing up for themselves and each other, but we are still a long way from equality between the sexes.
Men who act entitled, cruel and demeaning to women do not deserve to be celebrated - they deserve to be reviled as some of the worst examples of humanity, not mourned, lauded or ELECTED!

Why are you now requiring a full written summary? If the book is good, it's good!

The title about says it all. Very slow story with an occasional worthwhile passage, but rather boring and pedantic.

It is an informative book but the repetition of facts became more and more tiresome as the book ground on. I did struggle to finish it and often listened or read other books at the same time to keep from quitting entirely. I believe that I was only able to finish because of the exceptional skill of the reader, Scott Brick.

A mediocre story read well, but three times longer (perhaps four) than it needed to be, or should have been. The courtroom scenes were so poorly written that I thought the judge was going to lock up both attorneys for attempting to bore the jury to death!
Give this one a pass, you haven't missed anything.

This book was so mundane and unremarkable that I mistakenly downloaded it from my library not realizing I had already listened to it a few years ago. It took me a couple of chapters to realize I'd heard it and my review shows how I felt about it the last time!

Needlessly long and dragged out. It felt like the author was really pressed to find the right words and used 4 or 5 when one would do.

This book was well written, contained wonderful visual prose without being overly flowery, and is very true to the topic.
The narrator is excellent and the accent fairly well done - although not as "twangy" as I would expect for that area (where I grew up). An excellent listen!

The story was overly long and unnecessarily ponderous... the author could have finished this story and been more true to its message without dragging the reader and the story down such a long, boring road.
