The writing was absolutely beautiful and there were really good quotes and poems and stories but I don’t think I connected to a lot of them but I think when I’m older I might relate to it more

I feel like this is a solid feminist book and it’s analysis on pop culture, history, and so many more was very insightful. Writing was so great and refreshing, it felt like I was reading a novel rather than a non-fic book. Wish that it could’ve been more intersectional and the conclusion was not concise for me.
