Nothing Good Can Come from This: Essays by Kristi Coulter

3.0

“Is it really that hard, being a First World woman? Is it really so tough to have the career and the spouse and the pets and the herb garden and the core strengthening and the oh-I-just-woke-up-like-this makeup and the face injections and the Uber driver who might be a rapist? Is it so hard to work ten hours for your rightful 77 percent of a salary, walk home past a drunk who invites you to suck his cock, and turn on the TV to hear the men who run this country talk about protecting you from abortion regret by forcing you to grow children inside your body? I mean, what’s the big deal? Why would anyone want to soften the edges of this glorious reality?”

I really connected with a few essays in this collection (the quote above is from Enjoli), but for the most part the humor just wasn’t my style. I just want to put this on your radar if you’ve ever thought about reevaluating your drinking habits.
