“We teach them to be pretty and kind and nice right before we set them loose in a world filled with wolves. Then act surprised and horrified when some of them get eaten.”

Powerful, compelling, and deeply resonate. 

Miller’s searing ode to feminist rage is the most worthy battle cry, empowering middle-aged women to boldly claim their inner strength and beauty in order to shake up sexist society. 

Nessa, Harriet, and Jo… women of a certain age. After discovering teenage assault victims failed by local law enforcement, their inner fury and magical strengths fuel a fight for justice and a determination to take down any man that’s a part of the system. 

Themes exemplified in this read: 
-the inner strength of women 
-the beauty of aging and maturing 
-a celebration of the female bond and sisterhood 

Miller’s commentary, though obviously serious, is cultivated with wit and snark. Her creative solutions for the problems at play had me cheering. I closed the book proud to be a woman. Dare I say.. even proud to be a woman at this stage in life. 

This book made for a phenomenal discussion with some of my favorite fierce females @thats.one.for.the.books and @bookmarked.by.becky

Narrated by January LaVoy, this was a most excellent audiobook. 

Many thanks to @harperaudio @librofm for the #gifted copy of this book.
