This was a really tough read. I thought I'd fly through it but I just couldn't... It's the truth of the thing. It's important, but read with care.

I did a full review of this on my Instagram (@janhasread, shameless plug). But the basics of this is that you have to go into this book without specific expectations because I’ve noticed that the description can be misleading for some people.

This was really well written, sometimes you have to remind yourself that it is actually a nonfiction books. This makes it an easy intro to nonfiction as I’ve rarely read any in the past. And I thoroughly enjoyed it so I can’t wait for the next. 

The main theme I took from this book, which focuses on the sex lives of three women, is that the men in our life are a big part of our lives. In this women we saw how women deal with the men in their lives. How they fall in love, how they come to be with these men, and how they eventually see the worst parts of these men at times. We also how they deal with seeing the worst in the men they know. 

My only gripe was the sample size being obviously so low. It cannot possibly reflect “American Women” as the description says. And there was no diversity in these three women. They were all white. So this may be the experience of these three white women in American, but it definitely cannot be applied to more than them.
