2.5
This is a book about the patriarchal tendency of dehumanizing women. Which should be enough to tell you why I didnât like it at all.
The writing itself is good, but thatâs about the only redeeming quality to this book. The rest is just men being⌠well, men. I get what the author wanted to achieve with this, but why it needed to be written in this way is beyond me.
I keep hoping the next âclassicâ I read is going to be better, and I keep being disappointed because those âclassicsâ were written by allocishet white men in a time women were seen as little more than property.
