pickAfter reading all the other reviews on this I feel like I don‘t need to say much other than this: if you haven‘t read this, do so! I‘d never thought much about gendered language and now my eyes have been opened 🤯. I laughed, I clapped, I cried, I raged and I definitely have to get the print so I can reread. I now have a deep appreciation for the word “y‘all” but I don‘t think I can pull it off being a Brit 😂. May have found my best 2021 read.
tjwill This sounds so good! And it‘s giving me Kory Stamper vibes! @Riveted_Reader_Melissa @BarbaraTheBibliophage @daniwithtea![[tagged book]](https://image.librarything.com/pics/litsy_webpics/icon_taggedBook@3x.png)
