Sex Object: A Memoir

Based on some of the reviews I've read, it seems people were disappointed that this wasn't another Full a Frontal Feminism. It's supposed to say something about the movement and feminism... But that would defeat the purpose of Sex Object: A Memoir. It is a memoir, or “is a collection of memories that an individual writes about moments or events, both public or private, that took place in the subject's life.” And, as a memoir, it's powerful. It's honest. It's a real work that helps you understand who Jessica Valenti was, and how she grew into the person she is today. She highlights what's important to her. She tells stories that are, at times, terrifying.

So, as a memoir, I loved it. It's one of the best I've read in the last few years.
