An essay collection/memoir so not rated but she's knocked it out if the park AGAIN. I may not wholeheartedly agree with every word but every syllable has made me think and consider. Unsure if it just this edition but sadly very poorly edited-spelling errors or omitted words.

What an absolute cracker of a book. This is the book to get you excited about being a middle aged woman no matter your age or gender. Women are incredible, love you Caitlin Moran.

Parts of this book had me yelling "YES! THIS!" from the rooftops, other parts made me cringe a little bit. I would say that having loved HOW TO BE A WOMAN when I was a teen, and how much it informed me about feminism, I definitely appreciated MTAW for what it is in terms of voicing a particular woman's feminism, but I do feel Moran's voice is one voice that tries to speak for many and sometimes doesn't allow for intersectional feminism. However, the chapters on her daughter and the chapter on men really resonated with me, and overall it was an interesting and enjoyable read.
