This book has a very interesting concept! It describes a world where young girls have a unique power to inflict pain and death on others with a shock. The power awakens in girls around the ages of 14-15 and they can reawaken the power in older women. So essentially all women (with the exception of some due to various reasons (hormonal, etc.)) now have this power and men are fearful for their lives. Suddenly the tables have turned….
I liked the concept and the story but I didn’t quite get the ending. It seemed like every chapter was building to some great world war but the book ends before this conflict actually happens. I felt cheated and wanted more. And as great as the book was on flipping the narrative of rape culture on men, it still fell flat for me near the middle and end. Overall though, this was a decent book - 3 stars.
