Period. It's About Bloody Time
by Emma Barnett
4 stars
This book is a fantastic social commentary on periods by british broadcaster and journalist Emma Barnett.
It covers everything from period shame, education, politics to sex, stories from around the world, transgender periods and the menopause.
This isn't a scientific book, it is a book to break down barriers and start a conversation. It is incredibly informative whilst being funny and feminist. Emma is a fantastic writer and cleverly links in facts with personal anecdotes and historical facts.
As someone with endometriosis, I was happy to see it come up although saddened to hear Emma suffers from it herself.
It is a bloody brilliant book (pun intended) and I hope it makes women feel less alone with their period and feel brave enough to talk about this natural process that so many of us go through.
Please note that I was gifted this ebook in exchange for an honest review.
