I really enjoyed this one. I found it to be timely, relevant, and insightful. It was all well researched and I think most women can relate to Charlotte as a woman juggling family and career and life while trying to keep it all from falling apart.

It also brings to the forefront the very real differences faced by women who enter the political arena, from the focus on their attire to questions about their family and kids, that men aren't subjected to.

Overall, Jo Piazza nailed it yet again with Charlotte Walsh Likes to Win. Highly recommended for anyone who enjoys political fiction!
