It’s Tuesday again so The Broke and the Bookish are hosting Top Ten Tuesday.
This week it’s Ten Books For Readers Who Like _________ as it was International Woman’s Day over the weekend I’ve decided to look at books with feminist messages (whether it’s because it has a strong female character, or because it’s a book written to do with feminism)
In no particular order…
How to Be a Woman- Caitlin Moran.
Feminist, and funny. Talks about lots of feminist issues but easy to read and not in your face.
Talks about female heroines in books, very entertaining.
I read this a few weeks ago but haven’t reviewed it yet. It’s about being a feminist in Nigeria and the US, and why feminism is important. It’s a short book and I highly recommend it.
The Thursday Next Series- Jasper Fforde
Thursday is pretty awesome. she helps save not just one world but two!
Lyra is only a kid when she goes to save her friend Roger, but she doesn’t care about her age. She’s one powerful kid
About modern day sexism, very thought provoking. One of my most frequently recommended books.
