Women should read this

This is an in-depth study of working women in America and she does a good job describing the problems and proposing solutions. A lot of people wondering why it's so hard to get ahead today might find this book interesting.

I could not take her voice!

This book came highly recommended by a colleague. There may be some great information in this book, but I could not hear anymore it because I could not listen to the readers voice any longer. Some of what I caught made me think, but most is already written in other more listener friendly books.

An Essential and Necessary Read

Quart’s skill as a journalist is used to compile a logical and compelling argument about American society and the cost of existing today. I appreciated her careful analysis and interviews on the macro environment and how America’s reach for progress has left and will leave so many of us scrambling for new solutions for coping.

So hard to listen to because of narrator- uhg

Was so looking forward to listening to this book as I think the author and subject matter are spot on- but the narrator is so grating I don’t think I can muster through it. Might have to get paperback. So sad!!

Squeezed into action

Excellent book. However, the reader ‘s voice did not suit the book’s topic. She sounded happy when talking about hard things. Why didn’t the author read the book? She has a great voice!
