3.0

This is a solid collection of stories exploring so many aspects of womanhood. There were some stories that stood out to me more than others. I found it to be very honest and plainly spoken. I think personally, I’ve preferred similar collections with a bit more shock factor but I would still certainly recommend this one.

Thank you NetGalley and Softskull Press for this advanced reader copy in exchange for my honest opinions.

Whoa....all of these stories are hard, heavy and stay with you a long time. Girls, women of all ages, are in these stories exploring heavy topics (such as rape and sexual assault). This book is hard to get through but oh so worth the read. Still thinking about these stories....will definitely be reading more from Juliet Escoria!
Thanks to PRH & Soft Skull for the ARC!
