After some time, she ends up working for Faith who teaches her the ways of feminism and what it means to be a woman in modern society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Honestly, I was expecting a lot more from this book. It did discuss the challenges of being a woman and fighting for women&#8217;s rights. It somewhat addressed that many times, these moments of empowerment continue to marginalize women of color. Overall, I was hoping for a book that was more revolutionary or emotional. It was fairly objective and didn&#8217;t make me feel much at all despite being a woman with these challenges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I consider it more of a character-driven book. The plot moves along but the timeline bounces around a bit as we learn more about each character in their respective chapters. This was okay for the first half of the book or so, but once I realized not much else would be happening, I began to lose interest. The ending felt rushed and underdeveloped. I thought I had missed some key points between Greer and her parents. I felt like there was a 180 in their relationship that never got explained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I wanted to really enjoy this book because it does bring up important conversations, but ultimately it didn&#8217;t resonate much with me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>3\/5 stars Greer has the chance of a lifetime when she meets Faith Frank in the bathroom at her college.
