This is a book I'm definitely going to think on for a bit. The concept of what would happen if power dynamics were switched suddenly between women and men is pretty fascinating. And the ending! The ending was pretty much perfection.
Graphic: Sexism, Sexual violence, and Violence
Moderate: Rape, War, and Blood
