What Girls are Made Of was really good. And it was made even better with the author's note, but it would have been really good even if she hadn't given some great testimony as to why she wrote the book and why it written in the starkly honest way that it is. She admits that there are parts that may offend some people. But she explains why that is totally okay. I was not offended, but I was surprised- not shocked, but surprised by the graphic nature of parts of the book. You can tell though that it is not done gratuitously, that the inclusion of such frank descriptions make a really good point. Tough book, good book. But yeah, it may offend people. Another great book from
Arnold.
