Kat (kat_falkenroth) | 584 comments Amazon sometimes has the option to buy new books that are in a "bad" condition and I found it there for a few Euros! Super happy about this bargain and can't wait to start reading. I must say: RBG wasn't THAT well known here in Europe/Germany/my head till she sadly died and it was all over the news. But she sounds like a really interesting person.

I don't think she was well known in the UK, if I see anything about American politics it usually just involves the president. But even then, I remember the main thing about Trump was there was an attempt to ban him from visiting the UK. I think I knew more about her from studying American politics in school.

Kat (kat_falkenroth) | 584 comments Finally done! Took me forever but not because of the book itself - just had a really bad reading month.

I find the approach of the book really unique and found many interesting topics - some I skip-read though 😄

Reading a biography of RBG first would have been better to have a context for all the parts of this book. But overall it was a fun read.

Didn't get a chance to read this but I hope to make it my next audiobook.
