How to Build a Girl
by Caitlin Moran
class and femenism (5/21/2016)
I read this book as part of a paper. The book is brilliant for a young audience aged 15- 20. It shows a search for an identity that many of us can relate to. The book also has amazing humor that deals with poverty, feminism, work and sex.

I find the main character of the book refreshingly original as she is different from the women in The Hunger Games or Fifty Shades of Gray. This is not a women that has to save the world but just survive in the an every day life. Also there is no man that helps her discover her sexuality! This girl is a sexual person in her own right and we as readers get to follow her as she tries out the adult world. she can make mistakes so we don't have to.

I read this book after reading Caitlin Moran's other book How To Be A Women. So if you like that one and wanted a book that deals with issues for a younger group then this is a great book to read.
