Valenti's "Sex Object"

I devoured Jessica Valenti's memoir and found my own experiences mirrored in her pages, as I know most women will. I applaud her wit, vulnerability, strength and ability to say that we as women are living in a society that "hates" us. These are strong words, but as I read other accounts (books, newspaper articles, etc.) about the horrors women endure, from unwanted fondling, to date rape, to acid thrown into our faces and domestic violence that ends up in murder, I agree with her. This is a sobering, funny, compulsively readable memoir.
