Status Updates From Rise of the Rocket Girls: T...

Chaptee 3 was slightly better but this is still surface level history and she still ended by talking about a computer entering a beauty pageant.

Honestly, the author is *way* too fixated on pregnancy and keeps writing about conversations she has no way to have documented. This barely a history and I've sped the book up to 2.5x speed.

I'm back to trying to read this disaster of a 'history' book. Here's a sample in the midst of Chapter 2 about the *women who worked as JPL's computers*: "[Susan] told her mother after the wedding that she didn't want kids right away... [Her mother] wouldn't put any pressure on her daughter yet, since she knew that the fierce independence of a 20 year old girl often softened with time into the desire for motherhood."
