One thing I did kind of a little bit like was the many, many, many literature and bible references. Only because it made me realize what I think of now as brainrot has always existed. If they had phones they'd be obsessed with vine / tiktok / twitter / tumblr references. If all I had was books and gossip and the daily newspaper or whatever I'd be randomly making bible references too. We're not so different past humans and I, except I'm not racist. So actually we are different.

If I had a nickel for every time I read a book by a Desi female author who’s also a lawyer I’d have THREE nickels. All this year! How weird is that! Desi women leave some talent for the rest of us!

What an amazing and moving nonfiction book! What a perfect snapshot of women in media. Every chapter, nay, every page I was riveted and excited to read more. I added so many things to my watchlist, including things I knew about and didn't wanna watch until reading this! And to judge a book by its cover, its perfect!!!
