I can only read a couple of chapters at a time before my blood starts to boil. Loving the spunk and bravery of these girls. So far the book is believable and true-to-life. I‘m excited to see how it ends. #metoo #yesallwomen #feminist

4th (and final) question!

Ruri_kaichou #YesAllWomen essay! Her essays up to this point painted such a bleak picture that it felt hopeless we would get anywhere. But she gives hope as she explains how this movement started and what sort of changes started to happen 8y

I didn't expect the book to get into #YesAllWomen but I'm so glad it did. This is part of a great essay on it and event that spurned it.

Only 35 pages in, but I feel like I am learning on each page. As a teacher I am reminded to recognize the harassment and danger too many women have faced in order to get to my classroom. #yesallwomen

Stayed up until 2:30 this morning because so many truths in this book make me angry and I was raging, but here I am again. Injustice ain't pretty, but the only way we can grow is by first acknowledging that disparity exists. Read things that make you uncomfortable. Do it. ❤️💜❤️💜❤️💜❤️

BestOfFates Now I'm all envious of your edition with the two new essays - I wonder which ones are added! 8y
Riveted_Reader_Melissa 2 new ones! I feel cheated now! 8y
GuiltyFeat My favourite joke of the moment... Where does a mansplainer get his water? From a well, actually... 8y
OffTheBeatenShelf.com @BestOfFates @Riveted_Reader_Melissa Good question! I'm not sure which ones are new but I'm guessing it's the ones from 2014. Do "Grandmother Spider", "Cassandra Among the Creeps," "#YesAllWomen" or "Pandora's Box & the Volunteer Police Force" sounds familiar? I'm guessing it's one of those. 8y

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️ (out of 5). I was reading this book while following the news about Amber Heard. Sadly, the topics here were relevant and reflective. "Grandmother Spider, "Cassandra Among The Creeps," and "#YesAllWomen" are standouts. I'll be thinking about and returning to this one.

A necessary work of consciousness-raising, this book should be required reading for both men and women. #yesallwomen
