It’s also, as the author intended, very inspiring to hear about women caring more about having a voice and using it than selling a finished product. I thought you had to be a child prodigy to play music professionally, so to hear about women just deciding to start a band and then learning how to play instruments was mind-blowing. Even if you’re approaching this book from a detached or cynical perspective, it’s definitely going to make you want to start a band or zine.

My only complaints are that there were so many people named that I had trouble keeping them straight and just gave up after a certain point. Maybe more photos would have helped to tell them apart? But I also understand the difficulty of recognizing the many leaders of the movement, since leadership wasn't centralized to a few people. Additionally, the presence (or lack thereof) of transwomen isn't mentioned at all, which I found disappointing, though Marcus did tackle the conflicting relationships between queer and straight women in the movement.
A solid history of Riot Grrrl and one that will stick with me.
