XX by Angela Chadwick
5.0
4.5 stars
At first glance, XX seems completely far-fetched, yet at times I felt like I had somehow found myself reading a particularly unsavoury Daily Mail article about the pitfalls of modern parenting and how the world can only benefit from a return to "traditional family values". If this book had been published 10 years ago I would have simply enjoyed it and then moved on to my next read, but given the current climate in western politics, it almost felt like I was reading the biography of the first o-o parents.
It's a highly provocative read but I think it's a book that needs to be read.
Thank you so much to @dialoguebooks for this free ARC. I'll be eagerly awaiting whatever Angela writes next!
