    			  A really fascinating read- the kind of book you cannot put down once you start it. Didn't see the twist coming.

    			  Being a woman, it is hard to balance what you want or need as an individual and what is expected of you as a wife and/or mother- even now. More challenging in Mamah Cheney's time and as she fell in love with a genius. <br/><br/>Thoughtful book. I very much enjoyed it, despite some of the twists-which are reality-based.
