I liked how this book will be able to make girls who have been in this kind of situation feel like they're not alone. The details are graphic but also it can feel like they are not enough to describe how horrifying it can be for women. As she progresses it is easy to guess how a women who does her job well would be treated by fellow male colleagues. Horribly. I love that she was brave enough to tell her story and maybe other women will be brave enough to tell theirs.

From a town in Mississippi to working for powerful men in DC and NYC, I was stuck by the raw honesty that the author provided in her experiences. She details her life and interactions with men (and their behavior) while working and navigating the political environment. This was a quick read and I enjoyed her straight-forwardness and not trying to sugar coat her experiences and how she overcomes in a world she is viewed as less than. I would recommend this book. Thanks to netgalley for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
