It’s dated at this point, ten turbulent years later, but that’s not the books fault, and it’s still highly relevant. I think it makes a useful primer on marketplace/commodity feminism and is still a worthwhile and easy read, but it lacks depth, which, in turn make it more accessible. It’s casual reader or beginner friendly, which is a double-edged sword for those left wanting more. I also wish it was a bit more intersectional—the lens is there, but the scope of content isn’t, if that makes any sense.
