I absolutely love Ambition Factor! I have no kids yet, but I'm in my thirties and thinking about it; I have my own business and consider myself an ambitious woman; Ana's book helped me a lot to understand the true life of working mothers in Switzerland, showing me the beauty and the difficulties. I discovered plenty of details that will help me to evaluate what is probably the most important decision of my life.
I wasn't expecting to enjoy reading a book on Ambition, nor to identify so much with the topic since I am not a working mother, but I did! I could relate so deeply with Ana's story and the questions she raised. I admired the thoroughness of the data she provides and the fact that she went on to conduct her own study for the purpose of the book. The author raises clever points and empowers the reader to shake the status quo, always in a kind and honest way, just like a caring and resourceful friend would. I felt taken by the hand and supported through her lens. Moreover, it is entertaining and witty, it never gets boring. Bravo and thank you, Ana!
