Reader of a wide range of genres, including a lot of non-fiction. I’m an active member of a sci-fi book club and occasional attendee at a post-apocalyptic book club.

Trying this out as an alternative and hopefully replacement for Goodreads, though I'm posting on both sites at the moment.

Aimed at female founders

No rating

It's not obvious from the cover or the summary (at the library I borrowed it from), but this book is aimed entirely at female founders. Nothing wrong with that but not for me as I'm not going to own my femininity or tell my girls how great they are (both examples from early in the book).
