A review by grayola
The Geek Feminist Revolution by Kameron Hurley

3.0

Falling somewhere between a call to arms and a compilation of blog posts, I was being tugged in and out of love with this collection of empowering essays. There's no doubt we need voices like Kameron's now more than ever, but my misguided expectation of a book filled with feminist analysis of geek culture in essay form—like some essays contained in Roxane Gay's Bad Feminist—turned out to be very wrong and contributed to my disinterest at times. The Hugo Award-winning essay that is referenced throughout the book and closes out the collection, however, is worth trudging through it, no matter your expectations.
