informative medium-paced

4.5

Wordslut is a fun and interesting examination at the relationship between language, gender, and society. Amanda Montell writes engaging nonfiction works. This book is well-researched and Montell explains her research and material in a manner that non-linguists can understand. I would recommend this book!

The audiobook is read by the author and is a joy to listen to - I especially appreciated the emphasis on the effects of misogyny on queer folks and folks of color. Extremely welcoming feminist text.

This book is, like, so weirdly funny. Literally couldn’t put it down. But you know, sometimes the references are a bit cringe and unrelated to the topic of the book. So like—yeah, pretty good all-in-all.
