This collection of essays were very good and I’m very glad I read them. They were all pretty insightful and they helped me to understand some things more and to look at others in a different way. The things in this book are definitely not a comfortable topic but it is definitely one that needs to be had.

Tiene un lenguaje muy accesible, es facil de leer y es corto asi q no resulta pesado. Un basico q sin duda todos deberiamos leer. 
En ocasiones resulta repetitivo pero nada muy molesto

littlecat's review

><there was some very overreaching bit about how veils (specifily burkas) are like the ultimate opression and the tone of it just made me put it down, all in all felt like a failure in intersectionality><
