This got repetitive, especially at the start. But despite that it was a really good, informative read. A lot of it I already knew, so I’d probably more recommend it to people who are just starting to learn about feminism, but that being said, I did still learn a few things! The writing style is super accessible and the artwork throughout helps you fly through the pages

slow-paced

Meh. This book had good premises and interesting topics, but, all in all, I was disappointed by the lack of depth. So much, in fact, that I got bored and had to switch to the audiobook version to finish it, which I've never done before.

It was basic Feminism 101, very redundant with the plethora of information and reflexions you can already find online or hear everywhere. I wouldn't recommend this book to someone who already considers themselves an intersectional feminist, especially if they are part of a marginalized community (or several) because they already know about all of this.
