OK so no lying here...the main reason I bought this was the old-time vibe of the cover. I then read the synopsis and it sounded like a winner. Sadly it was more flop than love...

While I did enjoy some parts of this, it was mostly frustrating. Going into this one I thought that it was supposed to be about the ladies of PanAm, their lives, and the struggle with working in a man's world. While it is partially about this, the book also goes off on several different paths, sometimes within the same chapter.

Speaking of chapters .. these are extremely LONG and most often didn't flow well or make any sense as to the content layout. I was often confused and had to go back and look to see if I missed something. Then later, in the same chapter, it would pick back up where it previously left off when I became confused...

After multiple times trying to sit down and read this one I grabbed the audio and finished it that way. It was still often jumbled and made no outline sense but it made it WAY easier to finish.

I've seen some rave reviews on this one and honestly I don't get it. Some parts were interesting but the jagged flow and long chapters made it hard to fully enjoy. If this one is on your radar though, don't let me dissuade you! You may enjoy much more than I did.
