Monsters: A Fan's Dilemma by Claire Dederer
3.75
challenging dark informative reflective medium-paced

The first 2/3 was so smart and thought-provoking. The chapters about ambitious women and mother artists as somehow monstrous were harder for me to get behind. She made some interesting observations in the drinking chapter but it didn't end nearly as strong as it began for me.
