The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath
Did not finish book. Stopped at 30%.

I was very disappointed, I have always thought I would love this book as an AFAB disabled feminist. 
It was racist, fat phobic and ableist and made me just feel worse for nothing (personally) positive to gain out of reading it. I thought I don’t deserve to torture myself and continue reading.
