Summary: How Jane Won
Review: the book was extremely interesting and it opened up several new doors that did not seem open to me before. i come from a very traditional family and there is a prevalent theme that whith a career there is a lack of family life, this book sharply contrasted this idea. many of the women had a more sucessful career because of the very fact of thier supportive family. the one thing that could have better enhanced this book is more variety in stories and a mroe deeper look into each of the women's lives.

Summary: How Jane Won
Review: This book is an amazingly inspiriting book. The set-up was a good idea. Each woman's story is descried from her eyes and from her perspective. The stories of each of the woman are very different and each unique in their own way. The woman seem to each come from a different background and each to maintain what they wanted to maintain, and to everyone's eyes become successful. I love the fact that many of the women juggle a social life, work life, and have time to run a successful family because many of the women write about their kids and those kids seem to be successful from what is written. The novel is an easy read because there is only a couple pages describing each character but yet, it is interesting because every couple of pages you have a whole new picture and problem at hand. The most inspiring part to this novel was the fact that many of these women came from a disadvantaged background and their success was even more of a special victory. I definitely recommend this novel for people who like to read non-fiction novels because you get in depth with these woman's struggles and their secrets to how to do it. My only complaint is that after reading so many stories they tend to get a little boring because you know each one of them will make it and succeed. Also not very much is discussed concerning the woman's jobs. The novel doesn't go into very much detail describing what exactly they do, where as more time is spent on describing they life they lived before and what they did and the life after because of this " job". Other than those two complaints the novel was amazing.
