That book made me so bloody angry. I read it at 16 and it really opened my eyes to my position in the world as a woman. It was terrifying and infuriating in equal measure. A very scary book, I think.

Read that at least 10 years ago. I thought it was very good.

It's a fab book but years since I've read it. May have to go get it out of library again.

How far in are you?
