Fed Up: Emotional Labor, Women, and the Way Forward by Gemma Hartley

Did not finish book. Stopped at 65%.

She had many valuable things to say, and she wasn't necessarily wrong. But I do think she got a little whiny, and overall I found the book completely unhelpful to me in my own attitudes as I try to maintain the world that I have created. It's easy to shift the blame on society or men, or even our upbringing as women, but we make daily decisions that have supported the carrying of the work, and we are good at it. There is nothing inherently wrong with that, and so I found the book unhelpful to me in who I am choosing to be in character and attitude. I had to stop the book.
