2.5/5

Jill Lepore's account of the history of Wonder Woman is quite thorough but at risk of being tedious. There are so many unnecessary anecdotes and name drops throughout the text. These sorts of choices make the book difficult to get through. For such a saucy title the book was rather boring and one-note. Though the issues with primary sources should be acknowledged, I still can't find myself that interested in the book.
