Welcome to Litsy!

My book club chose this without knowing Hough‘s book-review-related controversies. We still appreciated her writing style, despite its angry, dark edge. And there‘s plenty to discuss here—from a cult childhood and its after effects to misogynistic bosses and how people become unhoused. Def better than 3/5 but not quite 4/5.

This was lighthearted and it had charm because Montell is very open with the reader (though sometimes that made me wonder if it wasn‘t getting too subjective for nonfiction…) A lot of what was presented here wasn‘t new information, but it definitely deepened my understanding of the topics presented and the history behind them. My favorite parts of this were the ones where she suggested future steps for changing our language usage.
