A Merger of Equals review

I thoroughly enjoyed this book; it was a real page-turner and I was finished within 3 days! It was easy to relate to the main characters, and I liked watching their romance slowly progress. I look forward to reading other books by this author.

Really made me think...

I loved this book - not because I am a woman in the workforce, but because I face a number of the issues this book brings to light (work, kids, marriage, balance). This book challenged my way of thinking about those issues and made me re-evaluate the balancing act. By the end of the book, I felt like calling Jane and Charlie and asking them to meet for coffee - they were that real to me! If you enjoy books that have true character development, this books is for you.

Thoughtful and Inspiring Book!

I felt that A Merger of Equals was a thoughtful and inspiring book. The characters are so real and so human, each encountering challenges and successes that many of us face in the business world. As a reader, you could identify with the struggles of many of the characters and truly learn from how their situations were resolved. I enjoyed the author's use of humor and her keen understanding of relationships - female/female and male/female. Overall, an excellent read! I strongly recommend it!

Merger of Equals tells the truth!

I thought Merger of Equals was a fantastic book! I felt like Debra Snider had taken parts of my life and scattered them throughout her book! It really tells the tale of a corporate girl in a still very male dominated industry! (We're changing that!) Her encounters and trials are very real, and the way she dealt very insightful. In addition to loving the character development, I could hardly wait to see how problems were resolved. All in all, a GREAT read. Something you stay home on a friday night with a glass of wine and tear into!! Very entertaining!

Valuable insight on personal/career issues in an entertaining story

Wish I had read a book like this before I spent 25 years in the business world. The day to day problems characters in the book encountered seemed to mirror events and issues I or coworkers had to work through (although in a different field). Seeing the choices we each have to make in written form resulted in some thought provoking discussions with friends. It's unusual to find a book that entertains and educates-this is one.
