Book description

From Bustle columnist and Twitter sensation Sophia Benoit, this “charming and often laugh-out-loud funny” (Vogue) memoir-in-essays explores the ins and outs of modern womanhood—from finding feminism, the power of pop culture, and how to navigate life’s constant double standards—perfect for fans of Shrill and PEN15.

Like so many women, Sophia…

Why read it?

1 author picked Well, This Is Exhausting as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Benoit's memoir reminded me that I am part of millennial womanhood. The cool-girl-who-pretends-to-be-chill-by-basically-acting-like-a-stupid-dude thing is not unique to my embarrassing early twenties, for example.

This book is laugh-out-loud hilarious and wry, and by the end, I wanted to be Benoit's best friend.
