znvisser's review

dark informative slow-paced

2.5

This is an important book and the author did the research to provide insight in the addressed problems - and eventually an attempt at solutions as well. Even though I knew about most of these communities, this book still provided me some new insights. That being said, I had a hard time plowing through it and wouldn't have finished it this soon (or maybe at all) if it weren't for the January daily reading challenge. To me this information would have been presented more effectively as a series of journalistic articles, as in its current form it became repetitive quickly and felt too preachy to the choir to have a real impact.

thorough research on a very important topic. as someone who has had close experiences with some of the men described in this book, Laura Bates’ work really describes this cesspool accurately.
