What Members Thought
Really solid collection of essays about how Nugent came to define herself as a feminist and how she is still working on it. She covers much of the same ground as Roxane Gay (whose Bad Feminist gets a shout-out) but has some different angles to the same topic. Namely: we still keep needing to say why feminism is so important because we're still fighting for women to be treated as intelligent human beings.

Funny, feminist, essays from someone I could totally be friends with. I wish I had this to read when I was in my 20s.
