We Should All Be Feminists by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie : Book Review


Title  :  We Should All Be Feminists

Author  :  Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

Format  :  Paperback

Length  :  52 Pages

Rating  :  ★ ★ ★ ★ ★


I was delightfully surprised by this book as I didn't expect to enjoy it as much as I did. This very short book talks about the authors experiences , thoughts and feelings of gender and feminism.

I read the first half of this book whilst in the bath and then the other half as soon as I got out and into bed. It was so short yet so powerful. I've never thought as myself as a feminist as such but reading this made me realise how important gender equality is and how in different places around the world woman and men are treated a lot different to what I expected.


To say the least, this book really opened my eyes and I can't wait to read more books like this. Incredible!!
