All the Single Ladies

3.5 stars, rounding up. As you can see from how long it took me to read this, I had trouble getting into this one for some reason - maybe it's because there wasn't much of a narrative? (I know it's nonfiction, but nonfiction can totally have a narrative.) It's basically chapters all focusing on certain aspects of being a single woman in the USA, with some historical background and contemporary stories. I liked the intersectional approach, and I never felt like the book was exclusively about well-off white women in urban areas. A little more politics/policy throughout would have been nice, but I did enjoy this book and its perspective on an important and underserved group, especially in this crazy-ass election year.
