The Wrong Kind of Woman by Sarah McCraw Crow

4.5

What a relatable book! Set in a college town in the 1970's, this story is told from 3 POV. Virginia- A newly widowed mom who spent her life supporting her husband's career and raising her daughter, Rebecca- Virginia's 13 year old daughter who misses her father and can't figure out how to live without him, and Sam- a student of Virginia's husband who misses his mentor. 

Now, I didn't live through the 1970's.... but this book gives you a great feel for what it was like. It could also be closely compared to 2020... The characters were all relatable. First you grieve with them, then you watch them journey through some bad choices and celebrate their successes in the end. Great read!
