This book is so, so wonderful! I was baffled every other page by the fantastic play with words, the clever plot turns and the lovely way these characters develop throughout the story.

Cannot recommend more!!

5.0

The best anti-feminist feminist book written about women by a man. That might not sound like a good thing, but it definitely is! I absolutely adored this book and will be recommending to literally everyone. Every single plot twist was cohesive and surprising and the ending, while mildly frustrating, was still generally satisfying. 

I was sucked in from the first line, “Polly cut off hey hair in front of the mirror, feeling slightly guilty about not feeling very guilty about doing so.” I remained attentive until the last. It truly was a great book.
