Thank you so much for writing your vital truths and sharing your life with us. Everything you wrote resonated w me on a feminist level on a therapeutic level and on a human level. I am beyond grateful to you for writing this book. Thank you so very much. Every woman and every therapist and every man who considers himself a feminist should read your story. It’s groundbreaking. Keep on shining your beautiful light
Definitely the best book I’ve ever read

I loved it kept me interested and made me know myself better, this book has to be my favorite book I’ve ever read, I love that she had the courage especially to go get help and it worked for her. This book is definitely a 10/10
This book is a paradox and also very good

Very good; I couldn’t put it down. Highly recommend.
In a book where past relationships are detailed, it felt like it was missing something by not talking about her marriage and divorce. But at the same, I imagine spilling details of a celebrity divorce would undercut her message of self-empowerment and in some ways it’s stronger for ignoring the details all together, even if the story itself feels disjointed.
While I was reading it I found it confusing to just exclude him completely but after taking time to reflect at the end of the book, I think I’m glad.
Horrible

She blames men for all her problems yet can't cite a single reason why or give a single example. Quite remarkable how self righteous and brainwashed she is. Dont waste your money. She fails at everything-
Great surprise!!

It does feel like the author has a deep rooted hatred for my species. Even admits to it towards the end of the book. The positive things she says about men feel forced and not genuine.
Of course this is not to say that she is a bad person or that the guys she dated could have treated her a bit better.
That being said. I am glad the wrote it. I enjoyed reading this book. It really is a testament to how hard dating can be.
I am very happy that she is doing better.
Read in one sitting

Overall, I very much enjoyed this book. Anna is insightful and extremely well spoken. I saw a lot of myself in her experiences and ways of processing the world. I did, however, find the “men as a whole ultimately reduce women as a whole” narrative to run a bit thin by the end. While I agree with her for the most part, I would have liked the book to end on a more self-reflective note.
