Glitch Feminism: A Manifesto by Legacy Russell
challenging
slow-paced

Made me feel dumb. Maybe I am dumb, but points felt really unnecessarily abstract.
I did enjoy the references to the New York digital modern art scene, but that is not why I picked up this book. The last chapter and the bibliography ('notes') are worth perusing.
Overall, it was all to abstract in a way that didn't seem necessary to get the main points across. There were few lines that stuck with me, because everything was so bogged down with clauses and new vocab. I like when an author makes a complicated thing easier. This book seemed to make a easy thing complicated.
Maybe just not my style, or maybe I was missing the necessary context.
