"While Bitch is full of enormous contradictions, bizarre digressions and illogical outbursts, it is also one of the more honest, insightful and witty books on the subject of women to have come along in a while."
--- The New York Times Book Review, Karen Lehrman

"The prose, seemingly untouched by editors, is windy, incessantly self-referential, and packed with show-offy references.... It's also an extraordinarily thought-provoking, absorbing, wise, often poignant read. You can disagree with Wurtzel, but at least she always has a passionate point of view."
--- Entertainment Weekly, Dana Kennedy

"Bitch is a show-stopping, name-dropping, gossip-dishing, wild rock-n-roll performance--a Janis Joplin-Courtney Love-Madonna-style raucous, raving, ranting, shout-in-your-face soliloquy.... Although I'm not always certain what the author is saying, I definitely love her for saying it. Sometimes she does extract new meanings from the froth of daily life; other times she stretches too far seeking evidence to make her points. Her analogies, similes and metaphors are wildly exuberant, and exciting."
--- The Washington Post Book World, Barbara Raskin
