Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Boy oh boy. It's hard to articulate in words just how disgusting this book is. Warrior Princess continues the Eat, Pray, Love fad of disaffected rich white women exploiting the rest of the world's cultures to "find themselves" and write a book about it. But at least Gilbert was only benignly self-absorbed. In contrast, Budgor actively destroys the customs of the tribe whose guest she happens to be in a narcissistic quest for self-actualization. Naturally the African women she patronizes needed an upper-class white woman to show them how to be warriors. One reviewer said that if you liked Dances With Wolves and Avatar you will love this book. That is undoubtedly true since both of those films were about white people being better natives than the natives themselves. Budgor combines American arrogance, millennial entitlement, cultural imperialism, white privilege and new age superficiality with a zesty dash of self-righteousness. Also this is the second book that has come out this year called Warrior Princess with the word Princess in pink. What's up with that?
