The hilarious, heartbreaking and unapologetically feminist novel from queen of YA Holly Bourne, perfect for fans of Kathleen Glasgow and Amber Smith. Lottie has had enough. She's tired of being sexually harassed, interrupted and dismissed. So for one month, she decides to call out every bit of sexism she sees - no matter the consequences. With the reluctant help of film-student Will (who's annoyingly cute for an anti-feminist), her project goes viral. But as the backlash intensifies both online and off, Lottie starts to wonder: can one girl really make a difference? And more importantly, will speaking up cost her more than she ever imagined? ""Brings to mind the late, great Louise Rennison... A book to press into the hands of every teenage girl you know."" The Bookseller

This was an absolutely excellent book to read ! The character I liked the best is Lottie , because she stood up for what she believed in and made a difference in society . This book is an eye-opener for everyone who wants to find out , from a firsthand account, how gender inequality impacts women and men ! I would definitely recommend this book ! 10/10 would read again

It opened my eyes to different views and has made me think I should speak out and make more of a point about sexism myself. I am glad I read this book!!
