Breaking the Bonds of Gender Inequality and Societal Norms
I swear by the time I finished the book the phrase made me want to chuck my poor kindle out of the window.
When I started reading, I was intrigued by her story and enjoyed the writing style and some really great phrasing.
I feel I would have got the story and the concept of that she defied gender roles and societal expectations if the book was half as long.
Great quote “Through her, we are reminded that the stories we tell, whether grounded in fact or flourished in fiction, hold power.”.
