minniepauline's review against another edition

challenging informative inspiring medium-paced

This is a brilliant book. Klein’s writing is accessible, well-researched and compassionate. It was a very tough read, emotionally, for me. But one I think I’m going to want to revisit.

I regret listening to the audiobook because there were so many sections I wanted to annotate the hell out of, so I'm gonna have to reread this once I've got a physical copy.

While this is a very zeitgeisty book, I think it'll age better than others, as it serves almost as a history book mixed with memoir mixed with psychology.
