challenging dark emotional hopeful informative reflective sad medium-paced

5.0

Difficult at times, absolutely necessary all the time. I related to a lot here. Great essays that brought something fresh to someone intermediately versed in feminist theories but intensely approachable to any reader. The further reading and references also add a great deal so you get something different than just the author's voice as well as a great launching pad into other literature discussing related themes.
