This needs to be handed out in schools. This book is a great starting point for women and men of all ages, to begin discussions about feminism and women. It is well presented with thought provoking statements and pictures alongside them. The pictures themselves are great points of discussion and completely enhance the book. I really enjoyed this and there were a few points in it that I was surprised and shocked, we can all learn something new and the fight isn't over. I highly recommend this for everyone, but definitely should be introduced in schools.

This was a quick and fun little read. I feel like it should be a mandatory read for every child before they hit puberty. Girls needs to realize they are more than society tells them they are and boys need to learn that girls are people and not objects like society teaches them they are. The art is simple and almost monotone but it’s good that it’s not flashy or takes away from the words.
Girls are sick and tired and need to be listened to. This world needs to change. Girls deserve change.

I can't even explain you how I feel after this read. I love every inch of this book. Every details, every sentence. This book is just everything I was asking for when I discovered it.
I loved the fact that it tries to include everyone in it, I felt like I mattered, that I was important, and it's so rare. The drawings are so accurate, detailed, I could relate to each of them. I learned a few things. It highlights so many important subjects; I think it's a great introduction to feminism !
To put it in a nutshell, it's a quick read, I recommand this book to EVERYONE. I'm sure going to buy this book when it'll be out. You need this book in your life! Trust me!

This is a list of things girls are sick and tired of, as the title says. Unfortunately, it's just that. The art style is a
somewhat monochromatic melancholy collection of interpersonal interactions and floating objects. It gets the feeling across; however, there is no depth in the writing or illustration. If this were pamphlet for middle grade or younger school children, perfect. As an official-looking document for the province of Ontario, misses the mark for me.

Thank you to Netgalley for providing me with a copy for an honest review.

What makes Girls sick and tired is a short illustrated book that talks about feminist topics. I do think it could have been done better and could have added more in. I did agree with things in it. I think there should have been more detail and talk about things more and added more in than they did. I gave this a 3.5 out of five stars.

Well illustrated and highlights the struggles of women and girls and the importance of equality. I enjoyed reading it, though it was quite short and didn't add to anything I didn't know.

This book while not a graphic novel is a powerful voice for women and girls. I am not sure how young of readers should read it, so recommendations from the publisher would be appreciated.

I think this book is a good book for teenagers to read. Clearly, there is a big feminist slant to the book, but still there are real and relatable lessons to be learned from reading this book. The graphic novel format will appeal to the teenage readers of today, as this is a very popular format at the moment. This book was fun and fast and as mentioned before taught some invaluable lessons and brought up good points for girls and boys alike to be made more aware of. Thanks NetGalley for my ARC!

It made me sick and tired of reading “girls are sick and tired” throughout the book so the ending was rather refreshing, where the girls were not sick and tired. The book was what the title said, it tells of the events which make girls sick and tired. I would have preferred it if it was more detailed. This was just like skimming through facts I already knew the basics of. The illustrations were good, showing girls of distinct religions, races and culture but it would have been more engaging if they were not monochromatic.

I appreciate this book for the illustrations and the witty take on feminism. I wish it was a bit longer, however and had just a bit more substance to it.

I agree with just about everything in this book. I do believe that women should have more and should be treated differently than we currently are. I think all race, gender, etc should all be treated equally. This is the 21st century, but just like racism and other unequal factors of life, the belief that woman are inferior to men keeps getting passed down generation to generation. It’s not true, obviously. There are plenty of women who have done far greater things than men and because they’re women it’s not as great of an accomplishment. Things should be equal. Race. Genders. Etc. and this book highlights the ways in which women are left out or down graded. It will open your eyes. The genders are not equal and that is a problem.

This is basically a list of reasons of why we need feminism. It points out several issues that have been discussed for a long while but things are still the same. Instead of discussing them, though, it just mentions all these problems in an attempt to cause controversial thoughts and make the reader question all of this if they haven't done it yet.

The wage gap, the patriarchal and stereotypical expectations of what being a woman means, the objectification of our bodies, the supression of our sexualities are some of the topics touched in this short book. I liked how it ended with a sororal note, encouraging women to support each other and fight side by side for our rights.

With great writing and illustrations What Make Girls Sick and Tired is a great read. With a easy language the book is "wake-up call to everyday sexism and the other systems of oppression that women and girls are subject to across the world."

Recommended it as a read for everyone! 5 stars.

This was a quick read and while I wished it lasted longer, I was extremely happy with what was offered in 48 pages. What Makes Girls Sick and Tired is a collection of single paragraphs or lines that identify the annoying societal issues or the norms that can resonate with every woman. Whether it's about paying more like a tax on products that are being sold at a less amount for the opposite gender, or about being paid less in the same workplace position. Not only this, there are some highlights like a statistic that was projected:

"Girls are sick and tired of knowing that globally women between the ages of 15 and 44 are more likely to die of rape and violence than cancer, car accidents, war and malaria combined."

Overall, it was a really good read especially with the illustrations because they are totally what I love to see. Though, the collection could've been a little better with more points and maybe a few more details.

I’m all for short little books about feminism and this is another great one to add to my list. At only 48 pages (including illustrations), What Makes Girls Sick and Tired is a quick primer on many issues women face today. It doesn’t go into detail on all of the issues that make women “sick and tired,” but it would be a great starting point for a conversation.

While I appreciated it as a grown woman, none of it was news to me. Every one of these problems is something I’ve either personally faced or that someone close to me has dealt with. I think this book is probably best suited to older teens or people who are just starting to wonder what feminism is all about.

This was … not uninteresting? No, really, the book brought up quite a few good points but it really isn't more than a collection of catchphrases, meant to generate discussion? It's super repetitive and doesn't flow at all and I think the translations are kind of wonky in places. Plus the illustrations weren't my thing at all. I think it would have been a lot better, if it had just been a couple of lists instead of starting every sentence with "Girls are sick and tired of …" and maybe some in depth looks at some of the topics mentioned.

This book brought up a lot of great points, however I think it was only meant to generate discussions. I would have liked if it went deeper with a lot of the issues it brought up.

If I could, I would make everyone I know read this book.

The concept of the book and the execution are amazing and flawless. I loved every section and sentence, and the drawings included transmit perfectly the essence of the message: girls are sick and tired of inequality and the patriarchy.

I would've loved it if the book was longer and it discussed in more depth what is stated rather simply and briefly, but I understand that this was not the aim of the book and I know that its objective was to start the debate. Maybe the author could consider writing a follow-up, taking the opportunity to explore the ideas more extensively.

While I like the message behind this book... It was very choppy. I wish the translators did a better job with the flow. Also the book could have used less of "girls are sick and tired of" and just had a list (with the illustrations, which I enjoyed) of what we're sick and tired of.

I love the colors and illustartion in this book. These images help drive points home about the way women are treated and what issues they face. Unfortunately, I doubt that t6hose who need to udnerstand this will read it.
