Short Summary:
I enjoyed the small parts that focused on Julia Gillard, but the audiobook did become a bit dull and dry.
I personally found the book difficult to finish. It was written and easy to read, but I found it a chore to pick it back up and continue.


The Longer Summary:
I purchased the audiobook, mostly for the title and that Julia Gillard was on the cover.
I very, very much enjoyed the opening chapter and ending chapter with Julia Gillard's reading. It was great to listen to the speech again and to hear in her own words the context and background that went into that day.

The book then follows multiple essays on sexism and misogyny experienced by different women around the world. From the audiobook version, this gets a little confusing as it's read by the same narrator. It would have been easier if it were different voices, I guess it would have been less confusing if I had read it as a physical book over an audiobook.

The ending chapter closes with Julia Gillard speaking and I enjoyed this immensely.

I found the title to be slightly misleading, or that was my assumption. I assumed the narrative would focus more on Julia Gillard and her work from the Misogyny speech onwards, but this only featured a very small part.

I do believe understanding feminism and gender equality for all in modern society is still an important topic as ever. The book delivers several essays on women's experiences of sexism and misogyny.
