Speculative fiction at its finest tells us so much about ourselves. Hank Green does a great job capturing the zeitgeist of the times and letting us see ourselves a bit clearer.

3.5

This book drops us into a bleak life and world that you wish was completely fictional, but you know is too many women’s reality. It is a hard read but having people to talk to helps to work through it and find meaning in a book filled with dread.
