Positives. I enjoyed learning about the contributions of these important women. Unlike some other works on influential women I have read, I think this book presented a diverse mix of known/unknown and historical/contempory women from a wide range of backgrounds. I genuinely learned a lot. 

Negatives. The writing style was alright but every entry is formatted the same which made reading tedious after a while. It is comparable to reading 400+ pages worth of Wikipedia articles. 

There were also times that I didn't care for Hillary's and Chelsea's commentary which at times felt needlessly political. With this I mean that the information was obviously presented in a way that shows Hillary's political actions in a positive light or takes a shot at Republican politics. The obvious political motive was jarring at times.
