The Rules We Live By: Stories and Reflections on Unlearning Patriarchal Masculinity by Destyn A'Dante Land
3.0
Thanks to BookSirens for this ARC. I'm very unsure about how to rate this book. I think, fundamentally, it is not written for me. Despite an interest in theology, the devotionals did not appeal to me; despite a keen passion for gender equity, the rest didn't really hit home either. I don't know whether my whiteness or non-male-ness had more of an impact here. It's not that the book wasn't well-written, and its introspective nature made for a unique narrative, but I don't think I really know what it was trying to say. There were some references, but it seemed to be built more on experience than evidence.
