Book Review of The Female Persuasion

The Female Persuasion
reviewed on + 279 more book reviews


Read great reviews about this book, was looking forward to devouring it! Sadly, the writing style left me wanting some excitement, some depth of character, something....anything. When I have to force myself to pick up a book that I'm reading, then I'm just not enjoying it. I found myself skipping chapters to see if there was any development of Greer's character (nope) and if Wolitzer's editor ever cut the verbose sentences (nope) so I'm not sure what all the reviews were praising. Hope the next reader enjoys.
