The Pain Gap: How Sexism and Racism in Healthcare Kill Women by Anushay Hossain
3.0
2.5 ⭐️ ( the first 7 chapters were 3.5-4⭐️)
This book started off really strong and I found it so fascinating. As a woman who has waited 14 years for Endometriosis diagnosis and surgery reading this book in my recovery period hit close to home and really sparked my feminine rage.
However chapter 8 it went very downhill. The blatant privilege exhibited in that chapter really got under my skin and I found the book never recovered. Everything after that felt very repetitive and it served no greater purpose to the book.
