challenging informative medium-paced

4.75

To say I enjoy Laura’s books is probably the wrong word to use - I don’t enjoy any of the content of the books of course. I do however find her books very accessible and very important. Fix the System, Not the Women is quite a short, quick read but is impactful and informative. Men in particular, I implore you to read this.
