I find it a challenge to get through autobiographies. This one was so short I was able to make it through, but I did not find the author likable.

the soul of a woman is part memoir, part feminism treatise, and while an interesting enough read, imo it doesnt offer anything new. allende's feminist passions in her childhood and adolescence yrs are relatable and oft true yet hilarious, however the section in regards to real-world facts, figures and statistics often read like a simple regurgitation. this isnt a decent enough book, but there are better offerings for those looking for a book specifically abt feminism.
