This was a very fun, yet insightful, collection of essays covering everything from misogyny and fat phobia to politics and back again. While I could quote Lindy West all day long, I wont spoil the read. Instead I will just say that over and over again, she explicitly verbalizes what so many who are not cis-hetero-white men experience and feel. The essays are, in turn, hilarious, heartbreaking and heartfelt. In a time where so many of us are just plain worn down by dealing with seemingly unending attacks on our very persons, this book re-energizes our beliefs that all this is NOT OK and that we will continue to work for change, in ways big and small, whenever and wherever we can.
