This is feminism at its most uninteresting point. And it does not make any sense

The writing in this book is very good but the overall story is a little disappointing. I picked this book up since I loved the author's other book Lula Dean's Little Library of Banned Books. But this is quite different.
This book focused too much on hating men but at the same time, I liked how the author showed examples of how men are either placed over or take advantage of women. It's nice to have a female revenge fantasy but it's not great to have a hate on every man's story. This book walked a line and constantly fell to one side taking away from the main story that I came to read. If it pulled back from man blaming and hating the story could have been better.
As for the main story I wished they would focus on helping more ghosts get their revenge. That’s the book I came for. What we got was much slower-paced and not too much of a mystery. Although I loved Harriet. You go you badass! She is by far the best character, and I could have
read an entire novel about her alone. She had the best transformation into female power and the best lines. Honestly, by the end of the book I wanted to be her.
I enjoyed the writing and most of the story but wish it was better on some of its more serous subjects.

DNF at 40%. The book goes for a very feminist, anti-men vibe (there are still good male characters though) and centres around some women who come into their powers at middle age. However it felt a bit too cringey for me to enjoy.
