3 and 1/2 stars.

I like Franchesca Ramsey, and how she owns up to her mistakes, and then continues to do her best, which means she gets her butt handed to her from all sides on occasion.

Helpful glossary at the end of woke terms.

Her dog's name is Filthy McNasty.

I remain dismayed at every time I read a book by a woman who is trying to make the world better through social media platforms I have to read how people – mostly men – respond with the most toxic sludge imaginable.

Franchesca tried to take a page with the Lindy West playbook of trying to talk to one of her online attackers and find out why. It went a lot better for Lindy. It kinda went the way I had assumed it would go before Lindy's attempt went so well.

Won in a Goodreads raffle, but exactly my type of book.
