Women Don't Owe You Pretty by Florence Given
5.0
SUCH A GOOD BOOK. EVERYONE SHOULD GIVE IT A READ.
I honestly did not know what to expect when I grabbed this book. The title was catchy and the cover was pretty. But OH MY LORD, this book completely read me. Yup, I didn’t read this book, this book read me. After every chapter I kept on realising toxic behaviours I’ve let slide, and toxic behaviours I have to work on.
The take on feminism that Given talks about is so well explained. Every aspect (from self-love, to the patriarchy, to LGBTQ+, to privilege) was beautifully portrayed and explained. I feel like I’ve learned so much about the negative, and so much on how to change and be a better person.
Honestly, the only two words I’d say to Given if I ever get the chance to talk to her is: Thank You.
Please read this book. It will change the way you see things for ever.
