This book is one of the saddest I’ve ever read, but also one of my favorite books ever. It perfectly articulated for me what I’ve known for years about the pain women experience on a daily basis, simply for being women. The ending was a clever twist, the book was fast-paced and informative, and sure as hell am I buying it and recommending it to everyone who has difficulty understanding who misogyny works and is prevalent today.
