5: The List by Jade Chang 2★

I mean. I really do not even know with this one. It talked in circles. For some it will be amazing. Those who jump on making your own future through actions but also fate? I don't know. The writer was funny and captivating but the idea that you can just create a list of the person you want and then it will come true didn't work for me. I did like how it was one of those animated kindle books so that added a bit of wow but...not for me.

6: We Should All Be Feminists by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie 4★

I did not realise that I had heard this in quotes on Beyone's tour videos that I had seen in bad quality on youtube. When I did it only added to the power. Not all of points are relevant to me because of where I live and because of the privilege I have from my skin. However the points not relevant were still utterly fascinating. I came away thinking 'ok, well that is not me but this is how I can help my sisters not cissters' Then there were messages for all women from any social class or colour or nation. It is a truly powerful piece. I know it might seem daunting at the price per page breakdown but it is a wonderful piece. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is I wished it had more. She tends to have lots in little which can press on the purse but a wonderful person to read from.
