“What is a sea storm as a child? How does an earthquake begin to know itself? That first rumble you hear and think: me. Our power may be innate, but we learn its meaning from others. No one is born knowing the difference between a sea god and a sea monster. What if no one told you that you were a Hecatoncheire? ”

I went into this book expecting a lot of essays that are broadly relatable to women. Instead, I got essays that were about one woman’s very interesting life that were sometimes applicable to the things we all go through. This is not at all a bad thing! I think I just felt a bit let down by the book because it wasn’t what I was hoping to read, but that doesn’t mean it’s a bad writing choice at all. Melissa Febos has really interesting and powerful stories to share.
