Dear Ijeawele, or a Feminist Manifesto in Fifteen Suggestions by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

4.5

challenging hopeful reflective fast-paced

---

I picked this book up after a friend posted about it on Instagram. It was not what I expected but I loved it. The book is a letter to a friend that asked “how do I raise my daughter a feminist”. I think the author really got to the heart of a lot of the issues, provided a quick overview of the issue and moved on. It was not deep but I felt seen and heard as a woman.
