3.5

A good short story to read while you lose your mind inside your tiny, tiny apartment... In all seriousness, reading this in the middle of a lockdown is (hopefully) a once in a lifetime experience. Rated this a 3.5 mostly due to personal preference, but all in all a great, quick read with an important feminist message!
