dark informative medium-paced

Wynn-Williams makes bending over backwards to absolve herself of any responsibility for any of this an Olympic sport. I'm sorry, but no matter how bad your pregnancies are, it's not an excuse to aid the world's richest sociopath in destroying the global social order.

Man, I was so into this till the end, which was very stupid and heavy handed. 
adventurous emotional sad tense fast-paced

That thing where you go into a book blind and suddenly the tone changes and you realize the hero is gonna die.
slow-paced

I thought this book was written by a woman and was real confused as to why she was so obsessed with rape and c*cks. Googling the author made this whole thing make more sense.

The thing i appreciate about this book is the way it lays out the contradictions between the way evangelicals act and what they believe, and shows that purity culture is so toxic it becomes easier to literally commit a murder than to just divorce when you're having an affair. As a former evangelical,  the most devout people i know are also some of the worst people i know,  and a culture like what's described in this book is exactly why.
