I really liked Sadie's story. I thought it was neat how she talked about her social activities outside of work- going to school at night and to the synagogue, having her fortune read by a fortune teller, and going out with Henry, to the theater, or dancing or to Coney Island. She seems like the quintessential "new" young woman of the early twentieth century- she is independent, able to save her money, and not ready to settle down and marry Henry, even though he wants her to. She seems very content with her situation right now and her life as it is- as if she is not ready for things to change just yet and is enjoying the benefits of her hard work and her independence. I really kind of admire her! -Allison Godart | I really liked Sadie's story.

| + | I loved Sadie's story. She is a very practical person. She saves money and she knows how to have fun. I was a little disturbed by the matter or fact way she talks about getting her finger caught in the needle and how it could result in a broken bone or dismemberment. She did not seem concerned that it could happen to her. I think it is funny that she keeps putting Henry off and that she does not want to get married. I admire her independence. LeAnn Taggart | ||
