Feminism Is for Everybody by bell hooks

challenging informative inspiring medium-paced

4.25

Generally, I think this book does a great job at giving someone a basic rundown of feminist thought, and of persuading those who quasi-agree with feminism to become more strongly feminist. However, I don't think it would persuade an anti-feminist, and I found parts of the book to digress from the feminist cause (I don't think women should devote significant aspects of feminist movement to "fixing" men, as hooks slightly suggested, and I don't think parents being placed above children in a hierarchy is a symbol of patriarchal violence (though I did find the suggestion interesting)).
