I've never read anything along the lines of an edited journal before, and Alice Bag's was an incredible first! I've loved her music, and even met her when I watched her play live, and getting to hear more of her stories was so interesting.
I think the most valuable part of this book is getting to watch someone young learn in real time-- explore more ideas and start to understand intersectionality and global solidarity as she steps outside of her comfort zone and sheltered world.
It definitely isn't a literary masterpiece-- it's a journal, after all-- but it was fun, interesting, and thought-provoking to read, and I definitely learned a lot, too! I'd recommend it-- especially since it's a quick read!
