Off the Record

Off the Record

What a beautiful story full of character growth, heart, and love. Off the Record will grab you and pull you into the newspaper world, 60s in DC and a world of dynamic female characters who go against the norms of a controlling society and gave me Marvelous Mrs. Maisel vibes.

This book absolutely had all the emotions. I was laughing, scolding characters, cheering, wanting to strangle characters and I could not get enoughโ€ฆThen, you added the layer of a mystery and my favorite trope: fake dating, and I was hopelessly hooked!

I really appreciated how this book addressed the prejudices and controlling mindset of a very male dominated world during the 60s and yet there was a new generation of women standing up and pushing back so they could be their own independent person.

I absolutely binged this fast paced story. The fun banter between several characters also had me fully engaged and giggling during every chapter.
