Took me way to long to finish it. I enjoyed the first half of the book, but then found myself starting and finishing as I never gravitated to finish this. Happy I did though! It was a very informative and interesting read. Definitely wish I has read it back when I was writing my dissertation, it would be really good as a reference!

I picked up this book after reading the titular essay (after reading "The Aptness of Anger" in a class), and I'm so glad I did! I absolutely love how Srinivasan writes -- she's engaging and accessible, asks a lot of questions, and doesn't always end up with a concrete stance at the end. The book left me with a lot to think about and imagine on my own, and I'm looking forward to reading it again in a couple years when I might know a little more about the topics in it.
