What Members Thought
This book reads like a long form People magazine article about a reality show. Not only is it impossible to follow the myriad of characters, it jumps around from wife to wife, recounting only a few sentences at a time about each one and eventually they all blur together. It is impossible to get a sense of what the culture was like for the wives (let alone what their personalities were like) although I feel I can imagine it better than this book describes it, having done no research.

2.5 stars. Fans of Mad Men will enjoy this dishy look at America's space-race heyday , told from the point if view of the wives back on earth.

Such an interesting subject matter but the writing was way too scattered.
