Jia Tolentino knocked it out of the park with her first essay collection on all things related to growing up on the internet. From Barre to reality TV to athleisure to weddings, she has a feminist take. She meanders around topics, going on tangents here and there, but always comes back to the main point with a deep thoughtfulness. And here’s the thing: Even those tangents are brilliant. I’ll read anything she writes—anything—from here on out. Please do yourself a favor and get the audiobook of Trick Mirror. Tolentino has a soothing voice, and her sighs when she talks about the United States government are somehow comforting.
