Review of 'Shrill: Notes from a Loud Woman' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars! There has never been a better cultural moment to read this wonderful book. Women are sick and tired of being sick and tired of structural sexism. We have been forced to witness the installation of a misogynist who likes to "grab 'em by the p*ssy" as Supreme Leader, despite the fact that America elected our first female president by a 3 million vote margin. We are ready to be ANGRY, and West voices that anger perfectly. She takes her title from the word most often used to voice women's anger: SHRILL. It's also hilarious. Together with "Too Fat, Too Slutty, Too Loud," this is one of the most important books for all women -- and men -- to read right now.
