Gail Collins, New York Times columnist and bestselling author, recounts the astounding revolution in women's lives over the past 50 years, with her usual "sly wit and unfussy style" (People). When Everything Changed begins in 1960, when most American women had to get their husbands' permission to apply for a credit card. It ends in 2008 with Hillary Clinton's historic presidential campaign. This was a time of cataclysmic change, when, after four hundred years, expectations about the lives of American women were smashed in just a generation. A comprehensive mix of oral history and Gail Collins's keen research -- covering politics, fashion, popular culture, economics, sex, families, and work -- When Everything Changed is the definitive book on five crucial decades of progress. The enormous strides made since 1960 include the advent of the birth control pill, the end of "Help Wanted -- Male" and "Help Wanted -- Female" ads, and the lifting of quotas for women in admission to medical and law schools. Gail Collins describes what has happened in every realm of women's lives, partly through the testimonies of both those who made history and those who simply made their way. Picking up where her highly lauded book America's Women left off, When Everything Changed is a dynamic story, told with the down-to-earth, amusing, and agenda-free tone for which this beloved New York Times columnist is known. Older readers, men and women alike, will be startled as they are reminded of what their lives once were -- Father Knows Best and My Little Margie on TV; daily weigh-ins for stewardesses; few female professors; no women in the Boston marathon, in combat zones, or in the police department. Younger readers will see their history in a rich new way. It has been an era packed with drama and dreams -- some dashed and others realized beyond anyone's imagining.Binding Type: Paperback

Soft + Stunning!!!
Color: Jc Lace Heart White, Size: 60"x70", Color: Jc Lace Heart White, Size: 60"x70"
I was immediately drawn to this blanket as a fan of the brand and for its unique, vintage lace design. And it doesn't disappoint!
It looks just like the product photos and is really high quality and well made. The presentation from the start is stunning. It comes on a wooden hanger and is secured with a bow. And the blanket itself is amazing! The fabric is super thick, plush, and heavy. And it's on the large side compared to some of my other throws, so it's extremely cozy and comfortable. The contrast of the black and white is beautifully striking too, and the details are so dainty and crisp.
I haven't noticed any shedding and its washability seems promising, but I'll update if I run into any problems in the future.
Overall, I'm obsessed! It's gorgeous, functional, and a great value! Highly recommend!

Soft and fluffy after a wash & dry
Color: 02 Ashley Blue, Size: Throw XL (50" X 70"), Color: 02 Ashley Blue, Size: Throw XL (50" X 70")
Perfect, lightweight and warm. I got this for a chaise that I use. It’s not thick, but enough to keep you warm and cozy if you’re just reading and relaxing. I washed it and dried it as soon as I took it out of the box. It fluffed out perfectly, so don’t be fooled by the flattened squishy blanket that arrives. It doesn’t shed, which is a bonus.

High Quality Comfort!
Color: 01 Sage Green, Size: Queen (90" X 90")
This is definitely one of the most comfortable blankets I have ever owned. The material is thick, soft, warm, durable, and resistant to shedding & fibers breaking off. All of these favorable qualities work together to create optimal sleep conditions, and I would say it protects against cold temperatures in the environment (natural air & A/C, for example) very well. It is SO extremely cozy!!! It has become a comfort item of sorts, as well. It fits my Queen-sized bed absolutely perfectly. I've been searching for a blanket to fit my entire bed, and this blanket most definitely is the one.
When this blanket is nearby, it's nap time!
I love the the slightly raised texture of this blanket's material, and the checkered pattern adds a subtle, yet stylish touch to its overall appearance.

Loving my Bedsure Blanket
Color: Cream, Size: King (108" X 90")
I love this blanket. It’s for summer use & is the perfect weight. I feel both cozy and cool! Plus color & size are as shown. I washed it immediately and it was easy & came out soft; no shrinkage or shedding in the dryer.
