So, I promised myself I would only give 5 stars to all the books I read because if I finish them then that counts for a lot. This short book however, started out funny but you soon see Solanas' mental issues in her writing. It took me almost 2 months to read 47 pages. I did not like it, I did not feel empowered and I will never read it again.

A good manifesto. If you don't especially like manifestos, you probably won't like this one. 
adventurous challenging hopeful informative inspiring fast-paced

interesting, engaging, and necessary. reading this made me think about the things i reacted to and why i did. much of the critique is completely valid and much of it i agree with. read scum! 

Admittedly funnier than I expected. Overuse of the word “groovy” though, imo.
