I liked the first half I guess the second one not as much and the last quarter not much at all. I don't think I've read a book before that used the F word so many times.

Alice Hoffman explains the wide spectrum of male attention perfectly. I feel like I’ve been every single one of these women at some point or another. I found every woman wildly relatable.

allapaz's review against another edition

5.0

This is one of those books that I will accept no notes on and I fully believe that anyone who has any notes just didn’t get it like I did

Yes the movie is great but this is great too, I read this in 1 day and it was so simple yet beautiful yet real and strong and scary in places with how briefly Hoffman could sum up some really sacred parts of sisterhood and woman/girlhood

Very pleased to start my 2024 reads with a banger
