COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Fun book submitted by kencza on August 11, 2020, 9:04pm Short bios of women who earned notoriety or fame through their accomplishments and endeavors during their lives. Presented in an entertaining and artistic manner and definitely some tongue in cheek humor, this is a fun and informative book.

Lots of influential women submitted by Xris on November 3, 2021, 11:51am I loved learning about the women I hadn't heard about before. I'm always trying to learn more and this helped. I wish a few of them went a little deeper into the woman's background, but it's generally good information.
