Like with many impactful non-fiction works, I don't plan on making a star rating for Not That Bad. This was a heartbreaking and powerful read that I will never forget.

I’m not going to rate this book, even though I usually rate nonfiction and memoirs because I think there is still writing and critical thinking to be had. I’m not rating it because that to me would feel like judging all of these people’s stories, and how they choose to tell them.
What I will say is that this really felt like a punch in the stomach. There were so many stories, all illustrating that they are only a small fraction of the actual milieu and experience of rape culture everywhere. A very tough, but very important listen.
