I agreed with parts and disagreed with others. But it was important to listen to it. I'm glad I heard a voice different than mine.

I've liked her essays before, so was interested in longer form, but many are surface tv/movie reviews. Did appreciate the essays when she dug deeper into real problems like rape culture and intersectional inequalities. Those gave me something to chew on, but those were only about 30% of the essays.

I had a really hard time getting into this book, but after I accepted that this book discussed a lot of subjects that weren't merely about feminism, it read way better.

Solid 4 stars. It wasn't exactly what I was expecting, but it was informative and thought provoking mixed with pop culture and tv series/movies analysis.

I think I would have liked this book a lot better if I had read it between 2014-2016. Although I did start it at some point then and couldn't get into it. Some of the essays are very good, and others are just things I've read before, or just not that interesting.

Sorry I missed the night my book club discussed this one!
