A review by ms_tiahmarie
Unless by Carol Shields

A brilliant book. It quietly, but persistently, pushes forward to assert the place of herself, her daughters, while exploring feminism and the concept of 'goodness.'

I sat there nodding, 'I know what she speaks.' The laments, the frustrations of so many, put together without dramatics. I saw a bit of every woman in my writer's group - wise beings at an age where society likes to shelve, overlook.

I wished to crawl into the pages and chat with women there, pick their brains, share a cup of coffee.

I am so glad I decided to spend more money and buy the solid book, not kindle. To be able to leaf through the pages and read again and again.

Yes, I adored this book.
