About this deal

Will Jean help those who are responsible for the position she’s in? The position ALL women and girls are in? First of all, many thanks to the Berkley Publishing Group for an advanced reading copy in exchange for an honest review. I am just sorry that my review does not end up being more positive!

unlikable protagonist - Jean is supposed to be smart and intelligent. She holds a PhD and was about to make a major achievement in treating the problems of language malfunction in stroke patients. And yet throughout the book she was whiny, unfocused, clueless, and meek. It made sense for the beginning of the novel but she never really became a strong force. These are a great alternative to screen time! Though they aren’t very long, usually about ten minutes or so per book, they are entertaining enough to keep little ones busy while offering all the benefits of reading. It is a good balance for screen time, especially on days that need a little more entertainment mixed in.

Success!

They loved it! They keep using it to read and play with the books. They loved being able to zoom in and out on the pictures—and that the story was read to them.

You think I should garden and cook more? You think the work I do is less important than – I don’t know – crafts?” Jean is a woman who now, when everything went to hell around her, wants to fight. Fight against the system, fight against the purists and brain-washers, fight against her new status, fight against her own husband. Even though the latter one isn’t that necessary, she still does it.

To me it feels like there went a lot of energy into explaining the circumstances and the way life felt like for the MC and the other women in the book, but there was hardly any effort put into explaining how the men lived. What they did, if they were okay with their women being silenced. If they struggled with this change too. But what annoyed me the most was the (more or less) subtle sexism towards men. Hey, I totally understand that one would start to despise the other gender if it was the reason for why you're being oppressed and not allowed to talk or work.

Random House) Maybe this is how it happened in Germany with the Nazis, in Bosnia, with the Serbs, in Rwanda with the Hutus. I’ve often wondered about that, how kids can turn into monsters, how they can learn that killing is right and oppression is just, how in one single generation the world can change on its axis into a place that is unrecognizable. Easily, I think, and push out of my chair.Words matter. The execution of the story gets so bogged down with technical, boring details that the whole plot feels, ironically, mansplained. Artemis left that same taste in my mouth.
