But Elizabeth refuses to bend to the rules of entertainment and insists on treating her audience the way she wants to be treated – with respect for their intellect. <br><br>This is basically a fairytale, with many improbable coincidences, a strong heroine (with little need for a big strong man to save her), a kind and common-sense-wise neighbor, a precocious kindergartener, and a highly intelligent dog. <br><br>I loved it. <br><br>I loved that Elizabeth forged her own path, recognized her mistakes, and did her best to correct them. I cheered for her when she refused to bow to other expectations and kept demanding that she be valued for her real ability to contribute. I applauded the way she inspired so many other women to strike out against repressive societal norms. <br><br>My F2F book club had a stimulating discussion, with many of us sharing stories of “how bad it really was for women” back in the day. I don’t think any woman today is asked “When was your last period?” in an interview, but our club members remembered when that did happen to them. <br><br>Now, please excuse me while I go sharpen my pencils. <br><br>Miranda Raison does a marvelous job of narrating the audiobook. She brings these characters to life and even gives Six-Thirty a believable voice. <br> </div></div><div class="fp" id="fp8440677"><div style="height: 1px;"> </div><h3 class="mh" id="mh8440677"><a class="anchor" name="8440677"></a><a class="anchor" name="n8440494"></a><a href="/topic/358741#8440677" class="b">8</a><span class="" ><a href="/profile/rocketjk">rocketjk</a></span><div class="mi">Feb 26, 9:59 am <a class="tj" href="#" onclick="scrollTo(0,0);" title="Return to top"><i class="fas fa-arrow-to-top"></i></a></div></h3> <div class="mT" id="mg8440677"><a href="#8439216">>6 christina.h:</a> Say Nothing is an amazingly good book, at least according to both my wife and my own self.
