Yes, I have counted a textbook towards my Goodreads. In my defence, it was a leisure read and I read it all.

This was very interesting and easy to read whilst still helping me to explore these issues and definitely prompted a lot of questions within me. It was also super interesting to see how things have changed since the book was written (in 2000). Very helpful!

Bleh. I gave radical sociologists a few chances to show me they had something to say, because - although the evidence is not good that they do - the consequences of ignoring them wrongly were awful.

kinda basic, even for an introductory text. so much more that could've been discussed.

Read a couple of chapters for my sociology of identity unit. It's one of the simplest and well explained sociology writings I have had the opportunity to read. Definitely look forward to reading the rest of the book someday.

Read this book to sum up the basic theories on identities to help with my dissertation. Did the job. Next step is to follow up with more in depth reading as I felt it was a bit too general
