I absolutely loved this. I have learnt a lot about feminism and I love the way the book covers the 60s/70s up to the present day and what types of issues women are faced with and why. The great thing is it is all done in a really readable way so you get the satisfaction of reading it as a novel and learn something without feeling like you are being preached to. The story itself is really great and kept me gripped right to the end. It was interesting to see how Vees perceptions had changed over the years and to see her perception of how Erica is living. I loved the authors note at the end, very powerful. The book has definitely made me more aware of inequalities and start thinking about how to challenge them. I have started with making my son pick up his own pajamas and bring his breakfast bowl through, things I was doing up until now without thinking about!
