READER REVIEWS
Praise for COMPANY OF WOMEN
There are many stand out characters, but I was particularly fond of Mabel, who is an unapologetically strong female. She is a tough cookie, not intimated by male patriarchy or societal norms, completely comfortable with voicing her opinions. BUT at the same time she is highly intuitive and incredibly empathetic. A true joy to get to know throughout the book. She had both remarkable depth and raw authenticity, making it almost impossible to put the book down.
I loved this book! Eddie Lewis has a fascinating life story. He is an unlikely hero who was ahead of his time. This book is extremely well-written and kept me engaged till the end! As a native of the St. Louis area, I particularly loved the local history and descriptions of the 1904 World’s Fair. I felt like I was there!
Enjoyable read! Brisk pacing, a well-developed plot & characters, some good good research into turn-of-the-previous-century middle America, St. Louis, the US Mail, American media/business, gender roles – lots to chew on here. Kudos to the author!
