Women Don't Owe You Pretty by Florence Given

niamhmason's review

I really didn’t enjoy this book, I just couldn’t get into it.

IDK; I got bored of reading it but then realised this isn't a story. DNF
It's more "advice". None of it is eye-opening or revolutionary. I couldn't relate, but IDK; maybe ppl from different backgrounds do things differently, so it felt like useless pointers. a lot of relationship "advice" or pointers about understanding self-worth and don't settle for a douchebag, which a) a pretty obvious thing most women know and b)I've never been in a relationship, so maybe that's why I could barely relate, to this
impact on confidence levels = I still hate myself.
Jk,
Idk what else to say cause I did stop reading it.
I don't even know if I am writing an accurate review cause I genuinely can't remember much of the book; I read it months ago and never completed it.

This is a very surface-level dive into feminism. It isn’t particularly intersectional (the closest it gets to this is a “white race, ethnicity and culture privilege,” which was very bare bones), but it’s a good starting point to becoming more socially aware.

The reviews for this book make me CACKLE because the women who are leaving comments about the "unoriginality" and "tiredness" of Given's writing clearly did not catch the vibe of the book. I feel like these are the same people who say things like "I'm not racist but..." or "If I was her...". Read
