 I love women as men are expected to, but the way only one who has ever experienced womanhood can.

I could not get into this and some things were a little more off putting than I can handle at the moment

I was sort of avoiding this book because I was afraid I wouldn’t like it but of course now I’m kicking myself for not reading it sooner 😩 This would be a 5 star but I listened to this on audiobook so the screechy voice of the rabbit was always grating on my nerves. I applaud the narrator for really giving life to the rabbit though. Anyway this was pretty scary and overall really enjoyable!
