Finished reading Fast Feminism

Finished reading FF about an hour ago, but only because I've been at home most of the day struggling with the symptoms of a vestibular migraine; most likely brought on by coffee withdrawal. I ran out last night and didn't get my first caffeine hit until 11.30 am. By then I was already in the throws of nausea and slight vertigo. Of course, the symptoms might have been brought on by low barometric pressure. Fast Feminism was a fast read, beautifully articulate and at times extremely poetic. In Bell's words Fast feminism is a feminism of affect ~ of intensity and movement (p.174) and I appreciated this, but was grateful (in my migraine state) that the book took a spiritual turn.
