Eh, it was fine.

It was far too short and some of the pieces felt dated now in 2020.

Great compilation of many female graphic novelists' work. I was only familiar with a few of these creators, so I appreciated the exposure to new artists. I love the variety, and enjoyed nearly all of the stories. The book is a nice package, well designed. The only really strange thing about the book was that the editor included a short story that she wrote and got someone to illustrate for her. But it's really just prose with two illustrations (that don't even jive with the narrative). Misplaced and inappropriate use of her editorial power, as far as I can tell. But other than that, totally cool.
