cqg 's review for:

2.0

As someone who is dating a (wonderful) human man and tends to truly question the kindness of most human men, I knew I needed this book in my life. Roberson is quite hilarious. I giggled a lot. I loved the references that she scattered throughout the book. None of the analysis was groundbreaking, I understand the patriarchy and the systems of power that I exist in. This would be a great book for a younger sister, or a mom who is newly curious about the world of feminism. Is this a modern consciousness raising work?? Potentially.
Roberson is a unique voice, she is fresh and honest with her readers. Maybe this book could have been edited more (sometimes the personal anecdotes felt like overkill), but that was also part of the charm.
