One of the best and most important books I’ve ever read. It took me from January 2019 - February 2024 to read it and felt like a friend and guide through those years. The ideas and lessons in the book will stay with me all my life and I plan to read it again some day!

This book explores the topical ways that women are oppressed in society and by their families or partners. It invites us to reflect and be aware of all the things women go through throughout a lifetime.

it is an incredible book with many of life's hidden mysteries and universal truths, but it also reads like a textbook, so it is hard to sit through
