Description
A feminist manifesto in graphic novel form that denounces the discrimination against and unfairness felt by women from childhood to adulthood. Illustrated in a strikingly minimalist style with images of girls with varied body types and personalities, invites teenagers to question the sexism that surrounds us, in ways that are obvious and hidden, simple and complex.
The book’s beginnings as a fanzine shine through in its honesty and directness, confronting the inequalities faced by young women, everyday. And it ends with a line of hope, that with solidarity, girls will hurt less, as they hold each other up with support and encouragement.

What Makes Girls Sick and Tired lists all the reasons that make us girls feminists, things that we've had to deal with for so long, things that need to change.
This book isn't a story, it's a peek into life as seen by girls. And not just white girls, but all kinds of girls; queer, trans, shy, indigenous, racial, and every other girl on the planet.
The thoughts are accompanied by art that emphasis on said points, making the facts stand out.
I finished this book in fifteen minutes tops, and I'd count it as fifteen minutes well spent.
