manicake's review against another edition

2.5

I am sick and tired of the “women must survive horrible trauma from men to be a fully realised and whole woman”. I barely got any sense of plot from these women other than being survivors and being able to give birth.

Felt like all the rage I have of living in the misogyny that built and holds up the patriarchy was expressed and given an outlet in this book.

I really like how everything connected throughout the book.  I thought i'd be more grossed out by all the bugs but surprisingly it didn't bother me, because of the context i think.  I really liked the writing. very trauma heavy though and have some mixed feelings.
