This is an interesting book. Like one reviewer, I also was turned off by the author’s defense of adding the bit about pooping to the title. I am not a prude or someone who takes offense easily, I just think this addition was not necessary. The book covers a lot of territory about women, which made it interesting for me. However, I found the style the author used to be a bit disjointed, jumping around and choppy. Still, there was a lot in the book of interest. I do think it was geared toward a woman who is still searching for herself or whatever. I expected a much lighter tone but realized almost from the get-go that this was not to be. There are many women out there who may and will benefit from the book, though not all women. I still think it is worth your while to give it a try, as every reader can benefit from at least some of it, and readers should be able to figure out what to latch on to and what not to. I received this book from NetGalley to read and review.

I was excited to get into this book but was turned off really quickly by the intro, in which the author defends her decision to add, "and yes, women poop!" to her cover. It was really unneeded and I found her style of writing to be really choppy and hard to follow. From the cover and summary, I expected this to be a cheeky funny take on expectations for women in our current society. But just a few chapters in, it's clear that the author covers the topic more seriously than I think was advertised.
