The Power

The Power

The Power by Naomi Alderman imagines a world in which teenage girls gain an electric power in their hands that they can transfer to other women. With this new power, they soon become the dominate gender and begin to take over the world from men.

Although some parts of this book were fascinating, mostly I found it disturbing. As soon as women gained this power, they began acting as awful as the men who had oppressed them. A very grim view of the world. This is one to skip.
