Oh hey guys. This is my first cannonball and I have started the year off by reading a book that scrambled my mind. It been a week and I still don’t properly know how to express how I feel about this book.
I didn’t know what to expect when I picked this up. I had seen it on a lot of Summer reading lists and I was at the bookshop looking at it when a lady rushed over to me and whispered “Don’t think about it honey, just do it. You won’t regret it.”
Well thanks bookshop lady. I appreciate your creepy whispers and I didn’t regret it.
I felt uncomfortable and dirty the entire time I was reading this book (physically dirty. There is a lot of actual dirt and grime in this book) but I haven’t read anything that so well captures all the bullshit I feel about the power and often the complete lack power that comes with being female.
I don’t think enough time has passed for me to say anything more about it. I just know I will be thinking about this book for a really long time.
If you want to read an actual helpful review on the book you can here.
This review made me look it up on GoodReads, and that made me add it to me Want To Read shelf. I’m excited! And a little scared.
So many new people this year! It makes me happy.
