Customer Reviews

Good Book!

I have to admit, I got this as a early reviewer site. But I had to say I loved this book. It's about a ghost writer that works on books for famous people. This tells the story of all the trials and tribulations of a single mom trying to make a living and a uncooperative client. The book also has a political overtone. If you are a woman who thinks that we as a gender, are starting to maybe loose our rights and feel we should be treated as equals...then this is the book for you! Also hits on stay at home mom and working moms, which Pitlor handles very well. Highly recommend this book! Comes out August 18! Loved it!
