I absolutely loved this book. It was slow to start, but I was drawn to the characters (Eleanor Roosevelt and Mary McLeod Bethune). I learned so much about what these two women accomplished during the Roosevelt presidential years. This one gave me West Wing vibes, so if you like that show it’s a good comp.
