F 'em!: Goo Goo, Gaga, and Some Thoughts on Balls by Jennifer Baumgardner

3.0

i really enjoy feminist gossip; which this book has plenty of. otherwise, i'd only give it two stars. i could have used far fewer outfit descriptions & proclamations of the author's relevance--i feel like we, the readers, should not have to listen to that. if you really are as relevant as you claim, we'd already know it! also, i was shocked at what she left in the interviews--like when she clearly gets into a fight with debbie stoller mid-interview. or when she asked kathleen hanna if she's given serious thought as to how much having a baby will impact her artistic life, to which kathleen replies, "uh, yeah..." i mean, does JB think KH is a total idiot? does she think she's 16 or something? who gets pregnant on purpose and DOESNT think about this?!
