The Lions of Fifth Avenue

I read this book for book club, and I chose it because of the link to the NY Public Library and the bookish themes throughout. I truly enjoyed this story split between 1913 and 1993, with two characters from the same family of a fictional famous writer. The 1913 storyline touches on the restrictive role of women during that time, and the groups in NYC at that time trying to change things. The 1993 storyline also examines choices women have available to them, nearly a century later. There are also book thefts in both time periods and complicated relationships. I wish Goodreads would allow me to give half stars because this is a solid 3.5 star rating for me - very much worth my time and very much a good story. Can't wait to discuss with my book club friends!
