5By ShaninasReadsIt’s been awhile since I read any books about gender equality. This book is great to start your journey as a feminist! It also gave me a sense of empowerment about how I shouldn’t be unapologetic. Great read and would recommend this book!Yes
5By FilmFoxNo one is actually arguing men are evil sexist rapists. Feminism is about gender equality, not revengeWe Should All Be Feminists
4By cinthya.arosThis was a good summary of the coming of a modern feminist. However, because of its brevity, it did feel like something was missing. With a bit more in-depth analysis on feminism, this would be salient and perfect. I still loved it, and I wish to read more of her works.Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
5By ChansseySuch an amazing book to read as a young female or male . Highly recommendedLove it. Need more.
5By dawnmc123This is a great beginning. I hope there are plans to develop this thesis more. There is a lot more to be said in promoting feminism and I would love to read this author on that. Love the book. Disappointed it ended so fast.Feminism - it’s that easy
5By MeliReadsThe author was brilliant in explaining feminism in the easiest ways by examples from her home country in Nigeria.Propaganda
1By Ryry117This book is pure propaganda advertised by Apple. The book is an echo chamber that validates the ideas of feminists on tumblr without looking at all the facts and while also being incredibly sexist towards men. Do yourself a favor and look up feminist issues and see both sides of the argument. Don't waste your money on this trash.Underwhelming
4By jeezjennybeeGood for a quick read. The only people to actually benefit from this are those on the fence about it anyways.
