Journey to a Woman

by Ann Bannon

I don't know if I can count this one, because I kind of skimmed the first half. Lots of emotional/relationship trauma, but at least most of it is cathartic.

Man oh man, I was not expecting Laura to be the sensible one. She's always been astonishingly stupid. Now that she's not the main character, I guess, it's not her mess and she can be a little smarter about it. I'm intrigued by the little family she and Jack have made, and I want to know how they'll weather the '60s, the '70s, the '80s, the '90s... and what it will be like for their daughter to come to terms with it when she finds out.
