When Everything Changed : The Amazing Journey of American Women from 1960 to the Present by Gail Collins

This book was pure awesomeness; I can't remember the last time I enjoyed a nonfiction title as much as I did this one. It is an incredible story, well told, with pitch-perfect anecdotes. Highly, highly recommended.

Julie,
My mom is wanting some fiction that is *happy*. Does it exist anymore? Do you have any suggestions?
I just read _The Help_, by the way, and loved it -- she's getting that for Christmas.

Huh . . . can't say that I can think of any happy fiction unless you want Jan Karon or something like that. (I consider Jan Karon "flu fiction.")

BTW, are you on Facebook? You should be.
